The No Nonsense Introduction To Big Data, Hadoop and Streaming

In this lesson, we will look at an example of how we could use Kafka with a simple consumer and producer. We will also demonstrate how we can process streaming input with Kafka. For this purpose, we will use two Python scripts, one to feed Kafka, `producer.py` and one to consume from it, `consumer.py`.

As we explained before, Kafka supports many connection types so, instead of Python scripts, we could have any project like Apache Storm or a MySQL database.


For this demonstration, the producer will generate random numbers and the consumer throws an alert for the odd ones.

## Example

Click on the "Run" button at the bottom of the widget. This will bring up a cluster of Kafka and Zookeeper, which is a coordinator for distributed systems like Kafka.

Now, move to the `usercode` directory where all the files are stored. We have already pre-installed the Kafka dependency for you.

```
cd ../
```
To execute the program, we first need to run the following command: `pip3 install kafka-python`
