Kafka cookbook (1.0.11) centos, fedora, debian, ubuntu, redhat, scientific, amazon. Apache kafka installation guide for multi-node clusters through the use of chef and the vmware vsphere big data extensions framework..

If you need to create a single node kafka server quickly for development or testing and need to be repeatable, the following are the steps. this uses chef-solo and community cookbooks.. Installs kafka v0.8.1.1, and probably any newer versions. based on the kafka cookbook released by webtrends (thanks!), but with a few notable differences: does not depend on runit cookbook. does not depend on zookeeper cookbook, thus it will not search for nodes with a specific role or such, that is. Let me start off by saying that adding apache kafka into the framework of vmware vsphere big data extensions (bde) has been the most challenging of them all. not from a framework perspective, but from a chef cookbook and configuration one..
