Supposing you have a file named route.yaml with this content:

- route:
    from:
      uri: "kamelet:timer-source"

Kafka Scram Sink Kamelet Description

SCRAM Authentication

This Kamelet uses SCRAM (Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism) for secure authentication with Kafka brokers. SCRAM provides a secure method for username/password authentication.

Authentication Mechanism

The Kamelet supports SCRAM-SHA-512 by default, which provides strong cryptographic security. The authentication mechanism can be configured based on the Kafka broker’s security configuration.

Security Protocol

Uses SASL_SSL security protocol by default, ensuring both authentication and encryption for data in transit. This provides comprehensive security for Kafka communications.

Credential Management

Requires username and password credentials that should be securely managed and rotated according to security best practices.

Production Ready

This Kamelet is suitable for production environments requiring secure authentication without the complexity of certificate-based authentication.
