Apache Kafka is creating a lot of buzz these days. While LinkedIn, where Kafka was founded, is the most well known user, there are many companies successfully using this technology. So now that the word is out, it seems the world wants to know: What does it do? Why does everyone want to use it? How is it better than existing solutions? Do the benefits justify replacing existing systems and infrastructure?

In 0.10.x, the Kafka community added a number of features that, used either separately or together, increases security in a Kafka cluster. The following security features are currently supported:

1. Authentication of connections from producers and consumers using SSL
2. Authentication of connections from brokers to ZooKeeper
3. Encryption of data between clients and servers using SSL
4. Authorization of sending / receiving permissions by clients
