Introduction
This document takes the example of creating and connecting to a Kafka instance with SASL enabled to get you quickly started with Distributed Message Service (DMS) for Kafka.
You can also create a Kafka instance by calling an API and connect to the instance in your service code.
Procedure
- Prepare the environment.
A Kafka instance runs in a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). Before creating a Kafka instance, ensure that a VPC is available.
After a Kafka instance is created, download and install the Kafka open-source client on your ECS before creating and retrieving messages.
- Create a Kafka instance.
You can select the specification and quantity and enable SASL when creating a Kafka instance. Enabling SASL secures data transmission with encryption.
- (Optional) Create a topic.
If automatic topic creation is not enabled during Kafka instance creation, you need to manually create topics for creating and retrieving messages.
- Connect to the instance.
After SASL is enabled, download a certificate and set the instance connection information in the client configuration file.
- Configure alarm rules.
Configure alarm rules for a Kafka instance to monitor the service running status.
