Automation Engine and Apache Kafka

Apache Kafka is an open-source, highly scalable end-to-end event streaming platform that builds data pipelines by collecting, processing, storing, analyzing and transmitting messages. By connecting Automic Automation with your Apache Kafka platform, you can produce (publish) and consume (listen to) messages from Apache Kafka topics from Automic Automation.

Automic Automation pulls the information from Apache Kafka. In the Process Monitoring perspective you can access the Workflow monitor, where all the tasks included in the jobs and their remote statuses are displayed. Automic Automation also provides downloadable execution reports.

The Apache Kafka Agent Integration documentation is available at https://docs.automic.com/documentation under Components > Cloud Integrations.

Note: This integration capability, like all integrations of the Automic system, can support service orchestration workflows. Such workflows orchestrate automated processes that run across multiple platforms, domains, and applications to deliver a specific IT service. For more information, see About Service Orchestration.
