Configuration of the Kafka cron task
You configure an instance of the Kafka cron task for each of your Kafka queues. The cron task consumes Kafka messages based on the schedule that you specify. All message consumption is controlled by the Kafka cron task.

The Kafka cron task consumes messages according to whether the queue is
sequential or continuous. In the Cron Task Setup application, add one or more instances of the
