About

Apache Kafka® is an open-source, distributed streaming platform. Scale production clusters up to a thousand brokers, trillions of messages per day, petabytes of data, hundreds of thousands of partitions. Elastically expand and contract storage and processing. Stretch clusters efficiently over availability zones or connect separate clusters across geographic regions. Process streams of events with joins, aggregations, filters, transformations, and more, using event-time and exactly-once processing. Kafka’s out-of-the-box Connect interface integrates with hundreds of event sources and event sinks including Postgres, JMS, Elasticsearch, AWS S3, and more. Read, write, and process streams of events in a vast array of programming languages.

About

Kafma is a desktop Kafka GUI client and IDE for macOS, Windows, and Linux. It keeps the consume–inspect–produce loop in one workspace, helping developers browse topics, inspect records, edit payloads, and produce messages without switching views. Kafma automatically decodes Avro and Protobuf, supports replaying and forwarding messages, and lets you draft, diff, and validate schemas before publishing. You can also manage topics and consumer groups, diagnose lag, and reset offsets. Kafma Pro can clone remote topics—with their configurations, schemas, and a selected range of messages—into a local cluster for testing, with optional field masking. Kafma works with self-hosted Kafka, Confluent Cloud, and Amazon MSK. A Free plan is available.
