Usage

Plasmido use Workbooks to define multiple consumers/producers that need to be started/stopped as a unit. You can create a Workbook with five consumers, or three producers and two consumers, etc.

Create Workbooks

A Workbook could contain any number of producer/consumers. You can configure each of them to produce/consume from different brokers or topics, using other schema registries, formats, etc.

Starting a Workbook will run each producer or consumer. For a producer you can define: Broker, topic, headers, event types, schema registry, repeat times, etc…​

On the same Workbook you can start a consumer for the same broker+topic

Or consume from another broker that you want to interact with

Producers and consumers also support headers.

Configure brokers

You can have as many clusters or brokers as you want. For clusters, separate the server by commas.

Note	There are not any limitation on the number of brokers or clusters you can add.

Plasmido supports Plain, SASL/PLAIN, SASL/SCRAM-SHA-256, SASL/SCRAM-SHA-512 and SASL/AWS/IAM. Also, you can use SSL.

On the topics tab, you can view, add, or remove topics.

Configure schemas registries

Schema Registries can be added using plain or ssl protocols.

Note	There are not any limitation on the number of schemas registries to use

Avro and Json Schemas are supported.
