What is the archictecture of your service? Is it Java, Python, Go, Node…?

Have you heard of `librdkafka`? It allows you to create consumers and producers in nearly any language. For languages not “officially” supported, there are many ports, such as `node-rdkafka`.

I think that you should consider some of the tutorials on Confluent: [Learn Kafka - Apache Kafka Tutorials and Resources | Confluent Developer](https://developer.confluent.io/quickstart/kafka-on-confluent-cloud/)

It is also important to consider _if_ you should be using a stream processing solution at all and look into a simpler solution if possible first.
