# Kafka
|
|
|
|
[Kafka](https://www.kafka.org/) is a distributed streaming platform used for building real-time data pipelines and streaming apps. It is horizontally scalable, fault-tolerant, wicked fast, and runs in production in thousands of companies.
|
|
|
|
## TL;DR
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
|
|
helm install my-release bitnami/kafka
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
This chart bootstraps a [Kafka](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-kafka) deployment on a [Kubernetes](http://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.
|
|
|
|
Bitnami charts can be used with [Kubeapps](https://kubeapps.com/) for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters. This Helm chart has been tested on top of [Bitnami Kubernetes Production Runtime](https://kubeprod.io/) (BKPR). Deploy BKPR to get automated TLS certificates, logging and monitoring for your applications.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Kubernetes 1.12+
|
|
- Helm 2.12+ or Helm 3.0-beta3+
|
|
- PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure
|
|
|
|
## Installing the Chart
|
|
|
|
To install the chart with the release name `my-release`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
|
|
helm install my-release bitnami/kafka
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
These commands deploy Kafka on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The [Parameters](#parameters) section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**: List all releases using `helm list`
|
|
|
|
## Uninstalling the Chart
|
|
|
|
To uninstall/delete the `my-release` deployment:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
helm delete my-release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.
|
|
|
|

The above command deploys Kafka with 3 brokers (replicas).
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,
|
|

helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/kafka
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**: You can use the default [values.yaml](values.yaml)
|
|
|
|
## Configuration and installation details
|
|
|
|
### [Rolling VS Immutable tags](https://docs.bitnami.com/containers/how-to/understand-rolling-tags-containers/)
|
|
|
|
It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.
|
|
|
|
Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.
|
|
|
|
### Production configuration and horizontal scaling
|
|
|
|
This chart includes a `values-production.yaml` file where you can find some parameters oriented to production configuration in comparison to the regular `values.yaml`. You can use this file instead of the default one.
|
|
|
|
- Number of Kafka nodes:
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- replicaCount: 1
|
|
+ replicaCount: 3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Allow to use the PLAINTEXT listener:
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- allowPlaintextListener: true
|
|
+ allowPlaintextListener: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Default replication factors for automatically created topics:
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- defaultReplicationFactor: 1
|
|
+ defaultReplicationFactor: 3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Allow auto creation of topics.
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- autoCreateTopicsEnable: true
|
|
+ autoCreateTopicsEnable: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- The replication factor for the offsets topic:
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- offsetsTopicReplicationFactor: 1
|
|
+ offsetsTopicReplicationFactor: 3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- The replication factor for the transaction topic:
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- transactionStateLogReplicationFactor: 1
|
|
+ transactionStateLogReplicationFactor: 3
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
|
|
To horizontally scale this chart once it has been deployed, you can upgrade the statefulset using a new value for the `replicaCount` parameter. Please note that, when enabling TLS encryption, you must update your JKS secret including the keystore for the new replicas.
|
|
|
|
### Setting custom parameters
|
|
|
|
Any environment variable beginning with `KAFKA_CFG_` will be mapped to its corresponding Kafka key. For example, use `KAFKA_CFG_BACKGROUND_THREADS` in order to set `background.threads`. In order to pass custom environment variables use the `extraEnvVars` property.
|
|
|
|
### Listeners configuration
|
|
|
|
This chart allows you to automatically configure Kafka with 3 listeners:
|
|
|
|
- One for inter-broker communications.
|
|
- A second one for communications with clients within the K8s cluster.
|
|
- (optional) a third listener for communications with clients outside the K8s cluster. Check [this section](#accessing-kafka-brokers-from-outside-the-clusters) for more information.
|
|
|
|
For more complex configurations, set the `listeners`, `advertisedListeners` and `listenerSecurityProtocolMap` parameters as needed.
|
|
|
|
### Enable security for Kafka and Zookeeper
|
|
|
|
You can configure different authentication protocols for each listener you configure in Kafka. For instance, you can use `sasl_tls` authentication for client communications, while using `tls` for inter-broker communications. This table shows the available protocols and the security they provide:
|
|
|
|
| Method | Authentication | Encryption via TLS |
|
|
|-----------|-------------------------------|--------------------|
|
|
| plaintext | None | No |
|
|
| tls | None | Yes |
|
|
| mtls | Yes (two-way authentication) | Yes |
|
|
| sasl | Yes (via SASL) | No |
|
|
| sasl_tls | Yes (via SASL) | Yes |
|
|
|
|
If you enabled SASL authentication on any listener, you can set the SASL credentials using the parameters below:
|
|
|
|
- `auth.jaas.clientUsers`/`auth.jaas.clientPasswords`: when enabling SASL authentication for communications with clients.
|
|
- `auth.jaas.interBrokerUser`/`auth.jaas.interBrokerPassword`: when enabling SASL authentication for inter-broker communications.
|
|
- `auth.jaas.zookeeperUser`/`auth.jaas.zookeeperPassword`: In the case that the Zookeeper chart is deployed with SASL authentication enabled.
|
|
|
|
In order to configure TLS authentication/encryption, you **must** create a secret containing the Java Key Stores (JKS) files: the truststore (`kafka.truststore.jks`) and one keystore (`kafka.keystore.jks`) per Kafka broker you have in the cluster. Then, you need pass the secret name with the `--auth.jksSecret` parameter when deploying the chart.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**: If the JKS files are password protected (recommended), you will need to provide the password to get access to the keystores. To do so, use the `auth.jksPassword` parameter to provide your password.
|
|
|
|
For instance, to configure TLS authentication on a Kafka cluster with 2 Kafka brokers use the command below to create the secret:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
kubectl create secret generic kafka-jks --from-file=./kafka.truststore.jks --from-file=./kafka-0.keystore.jks --from-file=./kafka-1.keystore.jks
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **Note**: the command above assumes you already created the trustore and keystores files. This [script](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/confluentinc/confluent-platform-security-tools/master/kafka-generate-ssl.sh) can help you with the JKS files generation.
|
|
|
|
As an alternative to manually create the secret before installing the chart, you can put your JKS files inside the chart folder `files/jks`, an a secret including them will be generated. Please note this alternative requires to have the chart downloaded locally, so you will have to clone this repository or fetch the chart before installing it.
|
|
|
|
You can deploy the chart with authentication using the following parameters:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
replicaCount=2
|
|
auth.clientProtocol=sasl
|
|
auth.interBrokerProtocol=tls
|
|
auth.certificatesSecret=kafka-jks
|
|
auth.certificatesPassword=jksPassword
|
|
auth.jaas.clientUsers[0]=brokerUser
|
|
auth.jaas.clientPassword[0]=brokerPassword
|
|
auth.jaas.zookeeperUser=zookeeperUser
|
|
auth.jaas.zookeeperPassword=zookeeperPassword
|
|
zookeeper.auth.enabled=true
|
|
zookeeper.auth.serverUsers=zookeeperUser
|
|
zookeeper.auth.serverPasswords=zookeeperPassword
|
|
zookeeper.auth.clientUser=zookeeperUser
|
|
zookeeper.auth.clientPassword=zookeeperPassword
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you also enable exposing metrics using the Kafka expoter, and you are using `sasl_tls`, `tls`, or `mtls` authentication protocols, you need to mount the CA certificated used to sign the brokers certificates in the exporter so it can validate the Kafka brokers. To do so, create a secret containing the CA, and set the `metrics.certificatesSecret` parameter. As an alternative, you can skip TLS validation using extra flags:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
metrics.kafka.extraFlags={tls.insecure-skip-tls-verify: ""}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Accessing Kafka brokers from outside the cluster
|
|
|
|
In order to access Kafka Brokers from outside the cluster, an additional listener and advertised listener must be configured. Additionally, a specific service per kafka pod will be created.
|
|
|
|
There are two ways of configuring external access. Using LoadBalancer services or using NodePort services.
|
|
|
|
#### Using LoadBalancer services
|
|
|
|
You have two alternatives to use LoadBalancer services:
|
|
|
|
- Option A) Use random load balancer IPs using an **initContainer** that waits for the IPs to be ready and discover them automatically.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
externalAccess.enabled=true
|
|
externalAccess.service.type=LoadBalancer
|
|
externalAccess.service.port=9094
|
|
externalAccess.autoDiscovery.enabled=true
|
|
serviceAccount.create=true
|
|
rbac.create=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: This option requires creating RBAC rules on clusters where RBAC policies are enabled.
|
|
|
|
- Option B) Manually specify the load balancer IPs:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
externalAccess.enabled=true
|
|
externalAccess.service.type=LoadBalancer
|
|
externalAccess.service.port=9094
|
|
externalAccess.service.loadBalancerIPs[0]='external-ip-1'
|
|
externalAccess.service.loadBalancerIPs[1]='external-ip-2'}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: You need to know in advance the load balancer IPs so each Kafka broker advertised listener is configured with it.
|
|
|
|
#### Using NodePort services
|
|
|
|
You have two alternatives to use NodePort services:
|
|
|
|
- Option A) Use random node ports using an **initContainer** that discover them automatically.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
externalAccess.enabled=true
|
|
externalAccess.service.type=NodePort
|
|
externalAccess.autoDiscovery.enabled=true
|
|
serviceAccount.create=true
|
|
rbac.create=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: This option requires creating RBAC rules on clusters where RBAC policies are enabled.
|
|
|
|
- Option B) Manually specify the node ports:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
externalAccess.enabled=true
|
|
externalAccess.service.type=NodePort
|
|
externalAccess.serivce.nodePorts[0]='node-port-1'
|
|
externalAccess.serivce.nodePorts[1]='node-port-2'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: You need to know in advance the node ports that will be exposed so each Kafka broker advertised listener is configured with it.
|
|
|
|
The pod will try to get the external ip of the node using `curl -s https://ipinfo.io/ip` unless `externalAccess.service.domain` is provided.
|
|
|
|
Following the aforementioned steps will also allow to connect the brokers from the outside using the cluster's default service (when `service.type` is `LoadBalancer` or `NodePort`). Use the property `service.externalPort` to specify the port used for external connections.
|
|
|
|
### Sidecars
|
|
|
|
If you have a need for additional containers to run within the same pod as Kafka (e.g. an additional metrics or logging exporter), you can do so via the `sidecars` config parameter. Simply define your container according to the Kubernetes container spec.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sidecars:
|
|
- name: your-image-name
|
|
image: your-image
|
|
imagePullPolicy: Always
|
|
ports:
|
|
- name: portname
|
|
containerPort: 1234
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Deploying extra resources
|
|
|
|
There are cases where you may want to deploy extra objects, such as Kafka Connect. For covering this case, the chart allows adding the full specification of other objects using the `extraDeploy` parameter. The following example would create a deployment including a Kafka Connect deployment so you can connect Kafka with MongoDB:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
## Extra objects to deploy (value evaluated as a template)
|
|
##
|
|
extraDeploy: |-
|
|
- apiVersion: apps/v1
|
|
kind: Deployment
|
|
metadata:
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
app.kubernetes.io/component: connector
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
...
|
|
mongodb.properties: |-
|
|

|
|
...
|
|
- apiVersion: v1
|
|
kind: Service
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: {{ include "kafka.fullname" . }}-connect
|
|

|
|
app.kubernetes.io/component: connector
|
|
spec:
|
|
ports:
|
|
- protocol: TCP
|
|
port: 8083
|
|
targetPort: connector
|
|
selector: {{- include "kafka.matchLabels" . | nindent 6 }}
|
|
app.kubernetes.io/component: connector
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can create the Kafka Connect image using the Dockerfile below:
|
|
|
|
```Dockerfile
|
|
FROM bitnami/kafka:latest
|
|
# Download MongoDB Connector for Apache Kafka https://www.confluent.io/hub/mongodb/kafka-connect-mongodb
|
|
RUN mkdir -p /opt/bitnami/kafka/plugins && \
|
|
cd /opt/bitnami/kafka/plugins && \
|
|
curl --remote-name --location --silent https://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/mongodb/kafka/mongo-kafka-connect/1.2.0/mongo-kafka-connect-1.2.0-all.jar
|
|
CMD /opt/bitnami/kafka/bin/connect-standalone.sh /opt/bitnami/kafka/config/connect-standalone.properties /opt/bitnami/kafka/config/mongo.properties
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Persistence
|
|
|
|
The [Bitnami Kafka](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-kafka) image stores the Kafka data at the `/bitnami/kafka` path of the container.
|
|
|
|
Persistent Volume Claims are used to keep the data across deployments. This is known to work in GCE, AWS, and minikube. See the [Parameters](#persistence-parameters) section to configure the PVC or to disable persistence.
|
|
|
|
### Adjust permissions of persistent volume mountpoint
|
|
|
|
As the image run as non-root by default, it is necessary to adjust the ownership of the persistent volume so that the container can write data into it.
|
|
|
|
By default, the chart is configured to use Kubernetes Security Context to automatically change the ownership of the volume. However, this feature does not work in all Kubernetes distributions.
|
|
As an alternative, this chart supports using an initContainer to change the ownership of the volume before mounting it in the final destination.
|
|
|
|
You can enable this initContainer by setting `volumePermissions.enabled` to `true`.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading
|
|
|
|
### To 11.8.0
|
|
|
|
External access to brokers can now be archived through the cluster's Kafka service.
|
|
|
|
- `service.nodePort` -> deprecated in favor of `service.nodePorts.client` and `service.nodePorts.external`
|
|
|
|
### To 11.7.0
|
|
|
|
The way to configure the users and passwords changed. Now it is allowed to create multiple users during the installation by providing the list of users and passwords.
|
|
|
|
- `auth.jaas.clientUser` (string) -> deprecated in favor of `auth.jaas.clientUsers` (array).
|
|
- `auth.jaas.clientPassword` (string) -> deprecated in favor of `auth.jaas.clientPasswords` (array).
|
|
|
|
### To 11.0.0
|
|
|
|
The way to configure listeners and authentication on Kafka is totally refactored allowing users to configure different authentication protocols on different listeners. Please check the sections [Listeners Configuration](listeners-configuration) and [Listeners Configuration](enable-kafka-for-kafka-and-zookeeper) for more information.
|
|
|
|
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed you adapt your values.yaml to the new format. Here you can find some parameters that were renamed or disappeared in favor of new ones on this major version:
|
|
|
|
- `auth.enabled` -> deprecated in favor of `auth.clientProtocol` and `auth.interBrokerProtocol` parameters.
|
|
- `auth.ssl` -> deprecated in favor of `auth.clientProtocol` and `auth.interBrokerProtocol` parameters.
|
|
- `auth.certificatesSecret` -> renamed to `auth.jksSecret`.
|
|
- `auth.certificatesPassword` -> renamed to `auth.jksPassword`.
|
|
- `sslEndpointIdentificationAlgorithm` -> renamedo to `auth.tlsEndpointIdentificationAlgorithm`.
|
|
- `auth.interBrokerUser` -> renamed to `auth.jaas.interBrokerUser`
|
|
- `auth.interBrokerPassword` -> renamed to `auth.jaas.interBrokerPassword`
|
|
- `auth.zookeeperUser` -> renamed to `auth.jaas.zookeeperUser`
|
|
- `auth.zookeeperPassword` -> renamed to `auth.jaas.zookeeperPassword`
|
|
- `auth.existingSecret` -> renamed to `auth.jaas.existingSecret`
|
|
- `service.sslPort` -> deprecated in favor of `service.internalPort`
|
|
- `service.nodePorts.kafka` and `service.nodePorts.ssl` -> deprecated in favor of `service.nodePort`
|
|
- `metrics.kafka.extraFlag` -> new parameter
|
|
- `metrics.kafka.certificatesSecret` -> new parameter
|
|
|
|
### To 10.0.0
|
|
|
|
If you are setting the `config` or `log4j` parameter, backwards compatibility is not guaranteed, because the `KAFKA_MOUNTED_CONFDIR` has moved from `/opt/bitnami/kafka/conf` to `/bitnami/kafka/config`. In order to continue using these parameters, you must also upgrade your image to `docker.io/bitnami/kafka:2.4.1-debian-10-r38` or later.
|
|
|
|
### To 9.0.0
|
|
|
|
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed you adapt your values.yaml to the new format. Here you can find some parameters that were renamed on this major version:
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- securityContext.enabled
|
|
- securityContext.fsGroup
|
|
- securityContext.fsGroup
|
|
+ podSecurityContext
|
|
- externalAccess.service.loadBalancerIP
|
|
+ externalAccess.service.loadBalancerIPs
|
|
- externalAccess.service.nodePort
|
|
+ externalAccess.service.nodePorts
|
|
- metrics.jmx.configMap.enabled
|
|
- metrics.jmx.configMap.overrideConfig
|
|
+ metrics.jmx.config
|
|
- metrics.jmx.configMap.overrideName
|
|
+ metrics.jmx.existingConfigmap
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Ports names were prefixed with the protocol to comply with Istio (see https://istio.io/docs/ops/deployment/requirements/).
|
|
|
|
### To 8.0.0
|
|
|
|
There is not backwards compatibility since the brokerID changes to the POD_NAME. For more information see [this PR](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/pull/2028).
|
|
|
|
### To 7.0.0
|
|
|
|
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed when Kafka metrics are enabled, unless you modify the labels used on the exporter deployments.
|
|
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 7.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is kafka:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
helm upgrade kafka bitnami/kafka --version 6.1.8 --set metrics.kafka.enabled=false
|
|
helm upgrade kafka bitnami/kafka --version 7.0.0 --set metrics.kafka.enabled=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### To 2.0.0
|
|
|
|
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments.
|
|
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 2.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is kafka:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
kubectl delete statefulset kafka-kafka --cascade=false
|
|
kubectl delete statefulset kafka-zookeeper --cascade=false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### To 1.0.0
|
|
|
|
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments.
|
|
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 1.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is kafka:
|
