Most of the connectors for Redash are contributed by the open source community. It doesn’t look like there’s a connector for Kafka yet. But it seems pretty straightforward to connect to Kafka from Python so you might be able to write your own query runner.
I love the idea of having Kafka as a supported data source, looking around I found a product which appears to have written this connector (Visualize Kafka data with Redash in minutes | Alooma). However having it natively would be amazing!
