docs(self-hosted): experimental external kafka

aldy505 commented 5 days ago

DESCRIBE YOUR PR

Provides guide for using external Kafka for self-hosted use cases. Obviously Sentry employees are not obliged to support or answer to any kind of questions regarding this, since this falls on the "Experimental" category.

But fun fact: Removing Kafka from the default docker-compose.yml will save you around 50% of RAM usage. Kafka is that bad.

LEGAL BOILERPLATE

Look, I get it. The entity doing business as "Sentry" was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 2015 as Functional Software, Inc. and is gonna need some rights from me in order to utilize my contributions in this here PR. So here's the deal: I retain all rights, title and interest in and to my contributions, and by keeping this boilerplate intact I confirm that Sentry can use, modify, copy, and redistribute my contributions, under Sentry's choice of terms.
