Adapter

Kafka

The Kafka adapter from Itential is used to integrate the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) with the Kafka API to provide the ability to subscribe to and trigger actions based on a message stream, as well as insert messages into a stream. Kafka is a distributed streaming platform used to publish and subscribe to streams of records.

With this adapter you have the ability to perform operations in Kafka such as:

  • Publish and subscribe to streams of records, similar to a message queue or enterprise messaging system.
  • Store streams of records in a fault-tolerant durable way.
  • Process streams of records as they occur.
