Summary

kcctl is a new open source command line tool for Apache Kafka Connect, which allows users to manage all their Kafka Connect instances in one place, whether on-premises or in the cloud. The tool provides an easy way to integrate with Apache Kafka and manage connections to other systems. It also offers similar functionality as Aiven's Command Line Interface (CLI), but can be used for any Kafka Connect instance regardless of its location. To use kcctl, users need to have an Apache Kafka environment with Kafka Connect up and running, which can be easily created using Aiven services. Once installed, kcctl allows users to create connectors, manage them, check data in Apache Kafka, and more.
