Hi Mark,

What kind of interaction are you looking for?  
Servoy already comes with a message broker (RabbitMQ) for load balancing multiple Servoy servers. You want to replace it with Kafka?

Mark,

Are you looking for using Servoy as a producer or a consumer of messages to a Kafka cluster?

This could be done by creating a Servoy plugin.

@Rob,

Correct, we are looking for a solution where Servoy will be used as producer and consumer of messages to a Kafka cluster.

Based on your answer i can conclude there is no plugin yet for this.

Thnx for the reply, we will dive into the plugin solution.
