Developed by the Apache Software Foundation, Apache Kafka is written in Scala and Java. The project aims to provide a unified, high-throughput, low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds. It&#8217;s a scalable, fault-tolerant, publish-subscribe messaging system that allows you to build distributed applications. Let&#8217;s begin with the installation.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Prerequisites:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>A server with a minimum of 4GB of RAM is required. This tutorial focuses on installing Apache Kafka on a VPS running Ubuntu 16.04 Server, but this may work with other distrubutions, or newer versions of Ubuntu Server.<\/li>\n<li>SSH root access to the server, or a user account with administrative access.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Step 1. Getting Started<\/h2>\n<p>First, you need to log in to your server via SSH as the root user or as an admin account:<\/p>\n<pre>ssh root@<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">IP_ADDRESS<\/span> -p <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">PORT_NUMBER<\/span><\/pre>\n<p>and replace &#8220;<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">IP_ADDRESS<\/span>&#8221; and &#8220;<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">PORT_NUMBER<\/span>&#8221; with your actual server IP address and SSH port number.<\/p>\n<p>Before we begin with the installation, let&#8217;s make sure that your Ubuntu 16.04 server is up-to-date by running the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre>apt-get update\r\napt-get upgrade<\/pre>\n<h2>Step 2. Install Java<\/h2>\n<p>Kafka is a Java based application, so we will need to install OpenJDK 8 on our server. To do this, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk<\/pre>\n<p>To verify if the installation is completed, you can execute the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>java -version<\/pre>\n<p>The following output should be displayed on your screen:<\/p>\n<pre>openjdk version \"1.8.0_191\"\r\nOpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-8u191-b12-0ubuntu0.16.04.1-b12)\r\nOpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)<\/pre>\n<h2>Step 3. Install ZooKeeper<\/h2>\n<p>ZooKeeper is an open-source service for maintaining configuration information, providing distributed synchronization, naming and providing group services, and so on. We will be using this service to manage the Kafka cluster state.<\/p>\n<p>We can install ZooKeeper from the Ubuntu&#8217;s default repository with the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>apt-get install zookeeperd<\/pre>\n<p>The service should be running on port 2181 by default. To confirm if the installation is completed and if the service is running, we can run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>netstat -tnlp | grep :2181<\/pre>\n<p>The following output confirms that the service is running:<\/p>\n<pre>tcp6 0 0 :::2181 :::* LISTEN<\/pre>\n<p>You can also use the following command to check the status of the service:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl status zookeeper<\/pre>\n<p>To stop the service, you can run:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl stop zookeeper<\/pre>\n<p>And to start the service:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl start zookeeper<\/pre>\n<h2>Step 4. Create a Kafka User<\/h2>\n<p>For security reasons, it is recommended that we create a dedicated user for our Kafka service.<\/p>\n<p>To create a new user with a dedicated home directory, execute the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>useradd kafka -m<\/pre>\n<p>Once the user is created, you can set a new password for it with:<\/p>\n<pre>passwd kafka<\/pre>\n<p>Make sure you enter a strong password and press [Enter]. Next, add the user to the sudo group with:<\/p>\n<pre>adduser kafka sudo<\/pre>\n<p>And log in as the kafka user with:<\/p>\n<pre>su kafka<\/pre>\n<h2>Step 5. Install Apache Kafka<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s create a new directory for our Apache Kafka installation with:<\/p>\n<pre>mkdir ~\/kafka<\/pre>\n<p>You can then navigate to this directory with:<\/p>\n<pre>cd ~\/kafka<\/pre>\n<p>Next, find the download link of the latest Apache Kafka installation from this page: https:\/\/kafka.apache.org\/downloads<\/p>\n<p>You can use the <code>wget<\/code> command to download the file. The command below might be an older version of Apache Kafka:<\/p>\n<pre>wget http:\/\/www.trieuvan.com\/apache\/kafka\/2.1.0\/kafka_2.11-2.1.0.tgz<\/pre>\n<p>Extract the archive in the current directory with:<\/p>\n<pre>tar -xvzf kafka_2.11-2.1.0.tgz --strip 1<\/pre>\n<p>You can also delete the original installation file with:<\/p>\n<pre>rm kafka_2.11-2.1.0.tgz<\/pre>\n<p>To create a <code>systemd<\/code> startup service for Kafka, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>nano \/etc\/systemd\/system\/kafka.service<\/pre>\n<p>Enter the following content and save the file:<\/p>\n<pre>[Unit]\r\nRequires=zookeeper.service\r\nAfter=zookeeper.service\r\n\r\n[Service]\r\nUser=kafka\r\nExecStart=\/home\/kafka\/kafka\/bin\/kafka-server-start.sh \/home\/kafka\/kafka\/config\/server.properties\r\nExecStop=\/home\/kafka\/kafka\/bin\/kafka-server-stop.sh\r\n[Install]\r\nWantedBy=multi-user.target<\/pre>\n<p>The service will also check and make sure that the ZooKeeper service we have set up previously is also up and running before it attempts to start the Kafka service.<\/p>\n<p>You can now try to start the Kafka service with the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl start kafka<\/pre>\n<p>To check the status of the Kafka service and make sure it is properly started, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl status kafka<\/pre>\n<p>You should see the following output on your screen:<\/p>\n<pre>\u25cf kafka.service\r\nLoaded: loaded (\/etc\/systemd\/system\/kafka.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)\r\nActive: active (running) since Wed 2018-11-28 12:31:10 CST; 9s ago\r\nMain PID: 10583 (java)\r\nCGroup: \/system.slice\/kafka.service<\/pre>\n<p>To make sure that the Kafka service gets started automatically after a server reboot, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl enable kafka<\/pre>\n<p>That&#8217;s it. Apache Kafka has been installed and it is now running on your server.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1039\" src=\"https:\/\/linuxhostsupport.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fully-managed-support-service-for-ubuntu-vps-apache-kafka.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"162\" \/>Of course, you don\u2019t have to\u00a0<strong>install Apache Kafka on Ubuntu 16.04<\/strong>\u00a0if you use one of our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/linuxhostsupport.com\/monthly-server-management.html\">Managed VPS Support<\/a>\u00a0services, in which case you can simply ask our expert Linux admins to install and configure Apache Kafka for you, as well as set up any additional software that you might need.
