Technical Obstacles
Key Points
• Zero Trust IT Security Strategy. Going
through Firewalls with SSL/TLS
interception. Security Patching of
minor updates or JAVA. High internal
requirements.
• E2E Monitoring over different
platforms. Only isolated view possible.
No visualization of Kafka integration
cases.
• Documentation quality, especially for
Connectors
How it works:
▪ Regional Kafka OnPremise Cluster
▪ Embedded in IIoT and Production Platform
▪ Way from Shopfloor to Business World in combination with other Integration Tools

Organizational Obstacles
Common VM Infrastructure
Server CI
One per Server
Application CI
One per server, break availability inheritance for clusters
Subsystem CI
Kafka per cluster
Subsystem CI
Management
Production Data Connectivity
Enterprise App – Kafka
One per site
Enterprise CI
Management
Subsystem CI
Kafka Connect per cluster
Key Points
• Acceptance by management,
administrators, developers etc. not
immediately given. There are many
different reasons for this, but they can
slow down implementation.
• Different responsibilities make
efficient collaboration difficult. Less
capacities available for rollouts. Hard
to get speed and quality.
• Transparency of value not
immediately given. Discussions about
sense make life not easier.
