KafkaUDR is the UDR that is populated via APL and routed to the Kafka Forwarding agent, which in turn writes the data to the specified partition and the topic set in the Kafka Profile. The Kafka Collection agent consumes the data from the Kafka log, from the specified partition(s), and the topic set in the Kafka Profile and places it in a KafkaUDR .

The following fields are included in the KafkaUDR:

FieldDescription
data (bytearray)

Producer: This field holds data to be passed to the Kafka log by the Kafka Forwarding Agent (producer).

Consumer: This field is populated with the data read from the Kafka log.

key (bytearray)

This field can be used for setting a key for messages sent to the broker.

offset (long)

This is a read-only field. This field is populated by the Kafka Collection agent and contains the offset in the Kafka log from where the message was consumed.

partition (short)

Producer: This field holds the partition to which the Kafka Forwarding agent (producer) writes the message. If this field is not populated, the partition is chosen randomly.

Consumer: This field holds the partition from which the message was consumed by the Kafka Collection agent (consumer).
