Confluent Server Docker Image for Kafka Connect

Docker image for deploying and running Kafka Connect.

Functionally, the cp-server-connect and the cp-server-connect-base images are identical. Prior to Confluent Platform 6.0 the cp-server-connect image included several connectors pre-installed, but this is no longer the case.

What is Kafka Connect?

Kafka Connect is part of Apache Kafka, and is used to integrate external systems with Kafka. You can find out more in the documentation and this short video.

Using the image

Please see the Confluent Platform documentation for further documentation on these images.

Installing connectors

Kafka Connect is a pluggable framework with which you can use plugins for different connectors, transformations, and converters. You can find hundreds of these at Confluent Hub.

You will need to install plugins into the image in order to use them. This can be done in several ways:

1. Extend the image
2. Add the connector JARs via volumes mounted to the image (example)
3. Install the connector JARs at runtime (example)
