Apache Kafka Messaging API
The core Kafka messaging protocol for producing and consuming records to/from topics using the native Kafka binary protocol, supporting exactly-once semantics, compaction, and partitioned log storage.
Apache Kafka Messaging API is one of 12 APIs that Apache Kafka publishes on the APIs.io network, described by an AsyncAPI event-driven specification.
Tagged areas include Messaging, Pub-Sub, and Streaming. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an AsyncAPI specification.
This event API exposes 2 operations across 1 channel, and defines 4 schemas. It is described by AsyncAPI 2.6.0, at version 3.7.0.
The API connects through a single server, localhost:9092 (kafka).
