Getting started

The ksqlDB Quick Start is the easiest way to get up and running with ksqlDB. It demonstrates a simple workflow that creates an event stream on an Apache Kafka® topic and uses SQL statements to write streaming queries against events in Kafka.

The quick start shows how to:

1. Get ksqlDB
2. Start ksqlDB Server
3. Start ksqlDB interactive CLI
4. Create a stream
5. Run a continuous query over the stream
6. Populate the stream with events
