1 background
Personal learning needs, so stand-alone deployment. In fact, the official also has very clear documentation:
https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#quickstart
2 Download and extract
https://kafka.apache.org/downloads
I take 3.2.1 as an example here:
# wget https://downloads.apache.org/kafka/3.2.1/kafka_2.12-3.2.1.tgz
The download is in .tgz format, unzip it:
# tar -zxvf kafka_2.12-3.2.1.tgz
3 Start the kafka environment
start zookeeper
# cd kafka_2.12-3.2.1/
# bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh config/zookeeper.properties &
start kafka
# bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties &
