While I am creating cluster setup for kafka I came to know zookeeper quorum set up is needed for coordination between kafka brokers.

Are there any other scenarios where we use zookeeper other than only for kafka setup in real time?

This link lists many applications and organisations using ZooKeeper

https://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.6.2/zookeeperUseCases.html

ZooKeeper is used with many Apache projects and is a distributed coordination service used to manage a large set of hosts. In simple terms, Zookeeper allows workers to get on with their jobs and handles all the other complexities i.e. if a leader goes down, alerting the workers, electing a new leader etc.
