For me the killer feature of Kafka is that topics are persistent until the data expires. Meaning different readers can be working at different offsets. And you can rewind or fast forward the offset you are reading, which can really be a life saver when things go sideways.

Does RabbitMQ have equivalent features?

Yes, a stream queue type [0] is available where you can set retention, and replay messages.
