Bring Your Own Kafka

If Kafka already exists and meets the following expectations, it can be used in place of Strimzi created by this Terraform. Expected configuration:

  • Client Authentication: None

  • KRaft Mode: Enabled

  • TLS Communications: Enabled

In order to use your own Kafka, make the following modifications to the execution instructions:

  1. Set terraform variable provision_kafka_servers to false.

  2. Set terraform variable byo_kafka_connection_string to your connection string.

  3. Do not execute the build of Strimzi in the following instructions.
