Kafka Data Set – Support for Multiple Topics in a Single Data Set (Pega 8.8.4)
We are using Pega Platform 8.8.4 and are exploring about the Kafka streams for data loading.
Our requirement is to consume events from multiple Kafka topics that belong to the same Kafka cluster and are processed using the same integration logic.
Could you please help clarify:
-
What is the Pega-supported approach to consume data from multiple Kafka topics using Kafka Data Set rules?
-
Is there a recommended way to configure multiple topics in a single Data Set (for example, comma-separated topic names, topic patterns, or any other supported mechanism)?
-
If multiple topics are not intended to be handled within a single Kafka Data Set, what is the recommended design pattern in Pega to achieve this requirement?
Any documentation reference or guidance specific to Pega 8.8.4 would be very helpful.
