It wraps the confluent-kafka library and exposes Kafka operators and hooks within Airflow's DAG framework, allowing you to define tasks that produce messages to or consume messages from Kafka topics as part of orchestrated workflows.\n\nThe package is maintained as part of the Apache Airflow project and is actively developed. It supports Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, and 3.14, and requires Airflow >=2.11.0. Installation is straightforward via pip, and it has low dependency friction\u2014the main runtime dependencies are apache-airflow, confluent-kafka, asgiref, and apache-airflow-providers-common-compat. No known security vulnerabilities are recorded.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a stable, actively maintained provider package from the Apache Airflow project with no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a permissive Apache-2.0 license. Install it if you need to integrate Kafka into Airflow DAGs. The only prerequisite is an existing Airflow >=2.11.0 installation and a Kafka broker to connect to."},"id":"apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-08","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Provider package apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka for Apache Airflow"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1928602,"position":3424,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.15.1"}
