I am interested in exploring the installation and usage of connectors from Confluent Hub in an Apache Kafka cluster without the Confluent Platform. I understand that Confluent Hub offers a wide range of connectors that can greatly simplify data integration and management.
If you have experience with this process or can provide insights into the step-by-step procedure, please share your knowledge here. Your valuable input will be highly appreciated by not only me but also by fellow community members facing similar challenges.
Key points to address:
- How to identify the appropriate connector from Confluent Hub for a specific use case?
