PyKafka was added to g-r as planned replacement for kafka-python client in Monasca [1]. Support for this client was never added though and the library is not used. Recent tests have shown that confluent-kafka client provides better throughtput and Kafka API support. Current plan is to add support for confluent-kafka client in Monasca instead of PyKafka [2]. No other project uses PyKafka [3].
