Kafka on Kubernetes, the Strimzi Way! (Part 1)

Some of my previous blog posts (such as Kafka Connect on Kubernetes, the easy way!), demonstrate how to use Kafka Connect in a Kubernetes-native way. This is the first in a series of blog posts which will cover Apache Kafka on Kubernetes using the Strimzi Operator. In this post, we will start off with the simplest possible setup i.e. a single node Kafka (and Zookeeper) cluster and learn:

Strimzi overview and setup
Kafka cluster installation
Kubernetes resources used/created behind the scenes
Test the Kafka setup using clients within the Kubernetes cluster

The code is available on GitHub - https://github.com/abhirockzz/kafka-kubernetes-strimzi
