top | item 21788863 Show HN: SpringBoot web app for browsing Kafka topics 26 points| ekoutanov | 6 years ago |github.com | reply 2 comments order hn newest [+] [-] hashhar|6 years ago|reply We are using this in my org alongside LinkedIn CCFE.It works great. You can see message counts, sum of offsets, partition sizes and basic broker information.The only part its not good at is showing the topic list. Since there is no pagination it takes a long time once you get past 1k topics.Also,it doesn't help "manage" Kafka since it can't create partition assignments or create, modify topics.It's good as a lightweight read-only Kafka UI. Good to hand to the teams using Kafka but not enough for the teams managing Kafka.EDIT: Seems like a lot of new features have been added. Take my comments above with a grain of salt then since they might be outdated info. [+] [-] ekoutanov|6 years ago|reply Thanks for the feedback. Agreed, topic list pagination sounds like a good idea.
