Components

Karafka Web UI data aggregation is combined out of a few stages:

• Tracking - Refers to collecting per-consumer and other data related to each process's operations.
• Processing - Refers to taking the tracking data and building proper representation models around it for presentation.
• Presenting - Refers to all the work needed to present the data via the Web UI.

This conceptual separation impacts the Web code design. It is divided into three main pieces:

• Tracking - All the code related to per-process data tracking and reporting to Kafka
• Processing- All code related to processing the tracked data and their aggregation
• Web - All code related to the presentation layer

Below you can find the diagram of the whole data flow:

Note: Please note, that this is an abstract flow visualisation. Karafka Web works well even when one karafka server process running.
