Chapter 8. AMQ Streams
AMQ Streams simplifies the process of running Apache Kafka in an OpenShift cluster.
8.1. MirrorMaker 2.0
Support for MirrorMaker 2.0 moves out of Technology Preview to a generally available component of AMQ Streams.
MirrorMaker 2.0 is based on the Kafka Connect framework, with connectors managing the transfer of data between clusters.
MirrorMaker 2.0 uses:
- Source cluster configuration to consume data from the source cluster
- Target cluster configuration to output data to the target cluster
MirrorMaker 2.0 introduces an entirely new way of replicating data in clusters. If you choose to use MirrorMaker 2.0, there is currently no legacy support, so any resources must be manually converted into the new format.
For more information, see MirrorMaker 2.0 in AMQ Streams 1.5.
