Service Bus: A quickstart for the Kafka transport by Maarten Smeets
July 30, 2017 Leave a comment
As mentioned on the following blog post by Lucas Jellema, Kafka is going to play a part in several Oracle products. For some usecases it might eventually even replace JMS. In order to allow for easy integration with Kafka, you can use Oracle Service Bus to create a virtualization layer around Kafka. Ricardo Ferreira from Oracle’s A-Team has done some great work on making a custom Kafka Service Bus transport available to us. Read more about this here: http://www.ateam-oracle.com/osb-transport-for-apache-kafka-part-1/, http://www.ateam-oracle.com/oracle-service-bus-transport-for-apache-kafka-part-2/ and http://www.ateam-oracle.com/custom-transports-in-osb-12-2-1/. The Kafka transport is not an ‘officially supported’ transport. Quote from the A-team blog: ‘The Kafka transport is provided for free to use “AS-IS” but without any official support from Oracle. The A-Team reserves the right of help in the best-effort capacity.’. I hope it will become an officially supported part of the Service Bus product in the future. Read the complete article here.
