See for yourself, but we think this project gives you better adaptability than [helm](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm) [chart](https://github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/incubator/kafka)s. No single readable readme or template can properly introduce both Kafka and Kubernets.

No readable readme can properly introduce both [Kafka](http://kafka.apache.org/) and [Kubernets](https://kubernetes.io/),

but we think the combination of the two is a great backbone for microservices.

For clients we tend to use [librdkafka](https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka)-based drivers like [node-rdkafka](https://github.com/Blizzard/node-rdkafka).

To use [Kafka Connect](http://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#connect) and [Kafka Streams](http://kafka.apache.org/documentation/streams/) you may want to take a look at our [sample](https://github.com/solsson/dockerfiles/tree/master/connect-files) [Dockerfile](https://github.com/solsson/dockerfiles/tree/master/streams-logfilter)s.
