Key Features of Kafka Center

Home

The Home feature provides an overview of all configured Kafka clusters and high-level monitoring information.

Topic

With the Topic feature, view requested topics or apply for new topics. You can also access messages and make new records via the web UI directly into your existing topics!

Monitor

The Monitor feature provides up-to-date statistics about the production and consumption of your topics. Users may also configure alerts (optionally triggering emails) for arbitrary consumption delay thresholds here!

Kafka Connect

With the Kafka Connect feature, create and maintain your own Kafka Connect jobs (note: this requires an external Kafka Connect service to connect to).

ksqlDB

With the ksqlDB feature, easily create and maintain your ksqlDB jobs (note: this requires an external ksqlDB service to connect to).

Settings

The Settings feature effortlessly maintains users and teams (accessible by administrators only). You can also use an external OAuth solution for user management.

Cluster Manager

The Cluster Manager feature securely maintains Kafka cluster information. In this module, users can view all Kafka clusters and drill down for more details of a specified cluster, including Broker, Topic, Group, and Monitor.

Approve

The Approve feature allows users to view their topic creation requests, and administrators can manage and approve them.

Favorites

The Favorites feature allows users direct access to monitor statistics for their favorite topics.
