Kafka Client

Use Kafka client when you don’t need a switching logic and want to produce/consume to/from single cluster.

NOTE: When using kafka client, you need to provide the fully resolved topic name & group.id to the configuration.

Axual Client

Use Axual client when you are using the multi-cluster feature, and you want the client switching logic and client doing all the topic name & group.id resolving internally while producing/consuming data.

Mutual TLS

Spring Client

Use Spring client when you want to use Java as programming language with Spring framework (Spring-Boot) combined with Axual client.

Mutual TLS

REST Client

Use REST client when you cannot use the native Axual Client and need to use low volume topics. It provides basic produce, consume and Avro schema resolve capabilities.
