This paper introduces you to key management components of Cloudera DataFlow (CDF)’s Streams Messaging capabilities, which are now also available within the Cloudera Data Platform (CDP). This materially advances how Kafka management, monitoring, and replication is done through two fully integrated components: Streams Messaging Manager and Streams Replication Manager. The Streams Messaging capabilities within CDP are available on-premises, on the public cloud as well as on hybrid cloud architectures. These address the unique needs of Kafka platform operations, DevOps, application development, security, and governance teams.
