Startup
First, you need to download Apache Kafka. And extract it to your desired folder.
If you go inside the Kafka directory, something like this kafka_2.13-2.8.0,
you will more likely see config, bin, lib, etc directories.
But for this series, we will only focus on the config and bin directory.
Configuration
These are the two configuration files that reside inside the config directory,
that we will use to start the Zookeeper and the Kafka.
- zookeeper.properties
- server.properties
