The installation instructions from Confluent will still work for you :) If you are using deb/rpm packages, basically add the repositories as explained here: http://docs.confluent.io/3.0.0/installation.html#rpm-packages-via-yum
and then: sudo yum install confluent-kafka-connect-hdfs or sudo apt-get install confluent-kafka-connect-hdfs This will put the connector config in /etc/kafka-connect-hdfs and the connector jars in /usr/share/java/ You may need to move the jar so it is on the classpath for connect (I'm not sure what's the default kafka classpath for HDP). BTW. We (Confluent) are testing the HDFS connector with HDP (we basically install Confluent platform on one machine and HDP on another and use Connect to move data) - so this setup should work :) Gwen On Fri, Aug 5, 2016 at 8:47 AM, Banias H <banias4sp...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > We are using Hortonworks HDP 2.4 with Apache Kafla 0.9 and we have an > in-house solution to pull messages from Kafka to HDFS.
