Kafka UI: Open-Source Web Interface for Apache Kafka Management
An open-source web interface for managing and monitoring Apache Kafka clusters. Simplify Kafka operations with an intuitive UI for topics, consumer groups, schema registry, and more.
Project Introduction
Summary
Kafka UI is a free, open-source web graphical user interface for Apache Kafka clusters. It provides a user-friendly way to monitor and manage your Kafka environment, offering insights into topics, partitions, consumer groups, and more, simplifying typical Kafka operational tasks.
Problem Solved
Managing Apache Kafka clusters using command-line tools can be complex, time-consuming, and error-prone, especially for users less familiar with the CLI or those needing quick visual insights.
Core Features
Topic Management
View, create, delete, and configure Kafka topics and partitions easily through a web interface.
Consumer Group Monitoring
Inspect consumer groups, view consumer lag, and manage group offsets without using CLI tools.
Message Browsing
Explore messages within topics, filter, and search for specific messages.
Schema Registry Integration
Integrate with Schema Registry to view and manage schemas for Avro, Protobuf, and JSON.
Tech Stack
使用场景 (Use Cases)

Scenario 1: Cluster Monitoring & Health Check
Details
Visually monitor Kafka cluster health, topic sizes, partition distribution, and consumer group lag in real-time dashboards.
User Value
Provides immediate insight into cluster status, enabling faster identification and resolution of potential issues.
Scenario 2: Message Inspection & Debugging
Details
Browse messages in a topic, apply filters based on timestamp, offset, or content (if supported), and view message details.
User Value
Simplifies debugging by allowing easy access to message payloads and metadata without complex command-line commands.
Scenario 3: Topic Management
Details
Create, modify, or delete topics, adjust partition counts, and configure topic-level settings through a user-friendly form.
