Introducing the Lightstreamer Kafka Connector
The Lightstreamer Kafka Connector serves as an intelligent proxy, seamlessly bridging Confluent Cloud with the internet. Powered by Lightstreamer technology—the world’s leading last-mile data delivery platform—it streams data in real time to your applications over WebSockets, eliminating the need for polling a REST proxy and surpassing the limitations of MQTT proxies.
Key features include:
- Intelligent Streaming: Dynamically adjusts data flow to match each user’s network conditions, ensuring all users stay in sync regardless of connection quality.
- Massive Scalability: Connect millions of clients without compromising performance, efficiently fanning out real-time messages from Kafka topics.
- Firewall & Proxy Traversal: Ensures seamless data delivery even through the most restrictive corporate firewalls and legacy proxies.
- Comprehensive Client SDKs: Supports a wide range of platforms and languages, making it easy to integrate Kafka data into your frontends across diverse environments.
