Confluent Control Center is an application that provides a user interface for managing and monitoring a Kafka-based streaming platform, enabling users to easily build enterprise-scale data pipelines and monitor message flow end-to-end. It offers features such as a web-based GUI for Kafka Connect, automatic configuration of connectors, and Stream Monitoring, which provides end-to-end metrics to show the big picture and verify that every message is delivered. Control Center can be used with any application that uses the Apache Kafka clients, including Kafka Connect and Kafka Streams, and requires Apache Kafka 0.10.0.0 or above. It is part of the Confluent Platform, which is an open-source, Apache-licensed distribution of Apache Kafka.
