Scheduling

The schedule settings regulate work of Kafka TA Producer/Consumer. The schedule can be configured as a cron expression or directly tied up to FIXEdge.

If the cron expression is used for scheduling, the Producer/Consumer starts using Client's connection to the Kafka platform at a scheduled time. At a scheduled disconnection time, the Producer/Consumer stops using the Client's connection to Kafka.

If the schedule settings are directly tied up to FIXEdge, the Producer/Consumer starts using Client's connection to the Kafka platform at the moment when the FIXEdge server starts. When the FIXEdge server stops, the Producer/Consumer stops using the Client's connection to Kafka.

Scheduling is represented by the following properties:

• TransportLayer.KafkaTA.<Session>.ConnectTime
• TransportLayer.KafkaTA.<Session>.DisconnectTime

Refer to the table in the Configuration section above.

Custom serialization

When FIX messages are transferred in raw format (i.e. serialization is not applied), the Kafka TA implies a string containing the tag values has been converted to strings.
