Install Apache Kafka from [here](http://kafka.apache.org/).

### Step 1: Ensure minimum requirements are met

MinIO requires Kafka version 0.10 or 0.9. Internally MinIO uses the [Shopify/sarama](https://github.com/Shopify/sarama/) library and so has the same version compatibility as provided by this library.

### Step 2: Add Kafka endpoint to MinIO

OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE
SOFTWARE.
