Configuring the Kafka Parameters

You can configure parameters related to Kafka, such as broker details and topic for the input data.

To configure the Kafka parameters, add the following parameters to the

RealTimeService

section in the configuration file:

Broker: Host name of the machine that hosts Kafka and the port number on which Kafka listens. If you use a Kafka cluster, you can specify multiple host names and port numbers separated by commas.; Use the following format to specify the host name and the port number:
<Host Name1>:<Port1>,<Host Name2>:<Port2>,...<Host NameN>:<PortN>
For example,
localhost:9092,KafkaBroker1:9092
TopicName: Name for the topic to which Kafka publishes the input data stream.

The following sample code shows the parameters for Kafka:

<RealTimeService>
   <Broker>localhost:9092</Broker>
   <TopicName>test-22</TopicName>
</RealTimeService>
