Hi Gwen,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

Our GPS device support TCP IP Socket communication with IP and Port. Kindly 
suggest KAKFA supports directly or do we need to write service layer for 
interface with KAFKA.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Basavaraj

Kafka requires a specific protocol and it is unlikely that GPS devices will 
support this protocol out of the box.

 

The usual solution is to create a service that accepts GPS packets using the 
protocol that GPS devices support, converts it to Kafka records and produce 
them to a Kafka broker.

Hi,



Please let us know whether KAFKA will support socket based communication
with external GPS device. GPS Device will send GPS packet to the KAFKA IP
and Port.



Thanks in Advance



Thanks & Regards,
