Axual Connect: Integrating Kafka-Connect within Axual

Axual Connect

Axual Connect is a wrapper over Kafka Connect, which adds switching and resolving functionality "natively" in the source code of kafka-connect.
As an operator of the Connect-Cluster, you are responsible for deploying, maintaining and monitoring Connect.

Deployment

Axual provides two methods of deploying Axual-Connect:

  • Recommended: Helm charts for deploying the platform into a Kubernetes cluster

  • Legacy: Bash scripts for deploying docker containers onto VMs / bare metal

Deployment instructions are separated per deployment type. Follow the one that applies to your use case.
