How to Implement Kafka Support for Legacy SOAP Services - dobag - 08-28-2025
Hello everyone.
I'm exploring the integration of Kafka with legacy SOAP-based systems. Specifically, I need to consume XML payloads from incoming HTTP POST requests and stream them into Kafka topics for further processing.
While Kafka Connect offers an HTTP Source Connector, it appears to be designed for polling APIs, not for listening to incoming HTTP POSTs. Has anyone implemented a solution where Kafka support is utilized to consume real-time SOAP messages via HTTP POSTs?
If so, what approach did you take, custom connectors, middleware, or another method?
Any insights or examples would be greatly appreciated.
