# OpenDataDiscovery Integration

Kafka-ui has integration with the [OpenDataDiscovery platform](https://opendatadiscovery.org/) (ODD).

ODD Platform allows you to monitor and navigate kafka data streams and see how they embed into your data platform.

This integration allows you to use kafka-ui as an ODD "Collector" for kafka clusters.

Currently, kafka-ui exports:

* kafka topics as ODD Datasets with topic's metadata, configs, and schemas
* kafka-connect's connectors as ODD Transformers, including input & output topics and additional connector configs

Configuration properties:
