My library Knowledge Sources To Go is very popular, but it was intended mainly as a thematically grouped guide to standard sources and was provided by me as a PDF file. For certain topics, however, there is so much content that I can no longer include it in that document, as it cannot continue to grow forever.

For this reason, I have decided to handle such topics in individual community articles like this one instead.

 

 

What is Stream Connect?

 

To ensure real-time visibility of business operations and health, organizations are consuming and processing high volumes of data from core business systems. As a result, many enterprises have adopted Apache Kafka – an open source distributed event streaming platform for high-performance data pipelines, streaming analytics, data integration, and mission-critical applications. For customers using ServiceNow as the platform for digital business, linking Kafka environments to ServiceNow instances is critical for maintaining connected, end-to-end workflows across multiple systems and data. That’s where Stream Connect for Apache Kafka comes in. Stream Connect for Apache Kafka links your Kafka environment to your ServiceNow instance, enabling you to stream data between your instance and your external systems. Using the Hermes Messaging Service, Stream Connect enables you to synchronize and ingest high volumes of event streaming data (messages and topics) from Apache Kafka into ServiceNow.
