About this task
Information noteWarning: When Apache Kafka is installed on a Windows machine, the Kafka broker
cannot delete old log files. This is due to how it manages files on Windows
operating systems. If you install Apache Kafka on Windows, it will eventually stop
working because it cannot purge old log files, which can cause Talend Data Preparation, Talend Data Stewardship, and Talend Dictionary Service to stop working. Talend recommends to install Apache Kafka on a Linux machine.
