Pre-requisite Docker Compose
Get started with Conduktor in just a few minutes. This get started bundle builds a complete Conduktor deployment consisting of a modern web UI (Console), a PostgreSQL database, a Redpanda cluster and other supporting services.

​
Overview

Once deployed, you’ll have access to a fully functional Kafka stack integrated with Conduktor’s UI and backend services. This environment is ideal for trying out Conduktor’s features before deploying to a production environment. Get started
1
The data generation service publishes a continuous stream of synthetic events that simulate an e-commerce business.
2
The generated data lands in a Redpanda Kafka cluster with a schema registry enforcing structure and compatibility across topics.
3
Conduktor Console provides a centralized UI-based control plane to manage the Redpanda Kafka cluster, allowing you to:
  • monitor topics, schemas, consumer groups and connectors
  • trace message flows
  • audit activity across the entire stack

​
Run Conduktor

curl -L https://releases.conduktor.io/quick-start -o docker-compose.yml && docker compose up -d --wait && echo "Conduktor started on http://localhost:8080"

​
Reset and start fresh

To reset your local Conduktor environment and remove all data: 
docker compose down -v
This removes all containers and volumes, including the PostgreSQL database. When you restart Conduktor, it will be a fresh installation with default credentials.
