Kafka Connector
The Event Service supports Kafka connectors, allowing integrators to consume or publish directly from their own Kafka. A connector is a component that manages the copying of data between Kafka and other systems. A connector defines the source (Publisher) from which the data is copied and the destination (Consumer) to which the data is copied.
