Neha, Thank you for the response. We saw that page, which is what ultimately prompted me to send out the message to the group to see if anyone might have started working on it, but wasn't ready to tell the public yet. I will discuss with the team tomorrow during our scrum to see what our course of action will be to get our PHP code communicating with .8 . If someone out there is already working on something we'd be interested in collaborating.
Based on what our PHP guys have told me we apparently use the library referenced, kafka-php, in a substancial number of places throughout the codebase. So I'm going to venture a guess that we'll be looking for a solution that would involve the least amount of changes to our code base for whatever solution we implement. That could be recontributing to the kafka-php project, a java based api proxy (which would actually be language independent, but which would introduce an increase in network traffic since it would act as a relay point... seems viable for our applications from what I understand), or the team might think of a better solution.
