How can we connect Kafka with adobe app builder

I have a requirement to integrate Kafka with the App Builder starter kit. Since Adobe Commerce event actions have a default execution time limit of 1 minute, I plan to use Kafka to store the event data temporarily. The idea is to publish the data to a specific Kafka topic and later consume it using a subscriber, as Kafka requires Docker to run locally.
Please provide the necessary details to integrate Kafka

Do we need an external service for Kafka to work with Adobe App Builder

Hi, I think you don't need to integrate with Kafka. You can use Adobe I/O events custom events to store the event data temporarily. Please look at this guide. https://developer.adobe.com/app-builder/docs/resources/event-driven/
