The apache_kafka integration sends all state changes to a
Apache Kafka topic.
Apache Kafka is a real-time data pipeline that can read and write streams of data. It
stores its data safely in a distributed, replicated, fault-tolerant cluster.
To use the apache_kafka integration in your installation, add the following to your
configuration.yaml file:
apache_kafka:
host: localhost
port: 9092
topic: home_assistant_1
