Hi Dimis,
I also need an answer for this inquiry. Version we're going on is Proprietary information hidden -Details of my project are as follows;
Business requirement: As a Pega Marketing user, I would like to send a push notification to my customers, based on their geo-location.
Specification: Inhouse mobile application retrieves customer's geo-location at each login and this data is pushed to Kafka Queue.
Implementation: Listen Kafka Queue, and create an event based campaign on Pega Marketing.

I also need to integrate Kafka with PRPC. But what I do understood from Other thread that There is no built-in support for Apache Kafka in Pega 7. Only way to connect Kafka with pega will be connecting via Java Connector or need to import their JMS client libraries into Pega.
I believe if we raise a SR for that, Pegasystem can provide some hotfix to connect KAFKA with Pega.

I am not sure that is a correct understanding. Inherent support for Apache Kafka would be an enhancement to the product and would be added to a future release of the Pega platform. Please work with your account executive to push for this enhancement based on the criticality of this need in your application.
I know this type of problems won't be supported by Pega by a SR.. These Enhancements are very big if I consider it for Pegasystems. But They can give some other work around may be.
Right, and thus it would be, for now, a custom implementation that you would need to do yourself for your application (and possibly share in it in Pega Exchange?).
So I raised a SR (SR-B8456-Media Request Type) with Pegasystems for Connectivity of Pega.
So as expected the SR did not do any good . So lets hope we will have some method or Integration connector for KAFKA. in 7.2.2 onwards or later - Sooner the better, Fingers Crossed :)

I already created an enhancement request for Apache Kafka integration.
It is in the backlog.

Do you have a solution ???
