As per Pega articles, I learned that Stream node is deprecated from 8.7.x versions. but we’re not sure what’re the configuration changes in-order to setup external kafka setup. Looking out for steps before upgrade (on external kafka configurations) and post upgrade validations.
@KishoreSanagapalli
For managed/private cloud deployment, we are about to release a new version of our helm charts that will make it easy to connect to an external Kafka cluster. You can follow new releases here: https://github.com/pegasystems/pega-helm-charts/releases
