Kafka connection point

The Kafka connector works with Kafka Cloud deployment. It supports reading and writing scenarios.

Note: By October 2024, the connector had been tested with Kafka deployed on Amazon and Confluent.

In the writing scenario, where Kafka is the Producer, the system allows you to define these for each message:

  • Topic
  • Partition
  • Key

In the reading scenario, where Kafka is the Consumer (reader), you are able to:

  • Subscribe for a Kafka topic (one per document)
  • Subscribe for topic’s partition(s)
  • Set a polling schedule – basic (days, hours, minutes, seconds) or advanced (based on Cron expressions)
