Hi Team,

 

            We are developing POC for Publishing and Consuming message to Kafka using Cloudera.Kafka Package. We had a requirement of Publishing and Consuming using REST Proxy API. In Cloudera do we have any option of Publishing and Consuming messages via REST Proxy API? if its possible could you please share the documentation link.

1) Cloudera does not have its own Kafka Web APIs. But obviously, we do not restrict to use of any other 3rd party connectors / APIs. You can use any third-party APIs and can easily integrate with Cloudera Kafka. 

 

2) Second and the best alternative is that NiFi has its own native support for producing and consuming from Kafka, so you should not need to use the REST API. 

 

3) Alternatively, SRM/SMM APIs can help here [1],[2]

Under CDF, there is Cloudera Stream Processing (CSP)
https://docs.cloudera.com/csp/2.0.1/index.html

and under "SMM REST API Reference" there is a host of REST API.
