  It is well-known that a Rindler observer measures a non-trivial energy flux,
resulting in a thermal description in an otherwise Minkowski vacuum. For
systems consisting of large number of degrees of freedom, it is natural to
isolate a small subset of them, and engineer a steady state configuration in
which these degrees of freedom act as Rindler observers. In Holography, this
idea has been explored in various contexts, specifically in exploring the
strongly coupled dynamics of a fundamental matter sector, in the background of
adjoint matters. In this article, we briefly review some features of this
physics, ranging from the basic description of such configurations in terms of
strings and branes, to observable effects of this effective thermal
description.
