This image is NOT for production use but rather for testing purposes.
This is a sum of following two image:
So the credit goes mainly to their creators.
This runs both Kafka and Zookeeper inside. Kafka is configured to use
port 9092 internally and ZK the port 2181. At least these two ports
should be bound to host for external usage. If you bind the Kafka port
to any other port on the host, you have to set the env variable
KAFKA_ADVERTISED_PORT to that one.
The KAFKA_ADVERTISED_HOST_NAME has to be set to the host's name or IP
for Kafka to accept incoming connections.
