* Follow the instructions from [Kafka's
quickstart](https://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#quickstart) to download
the code and launch a server (launching a Zookeeper and a Kafka server is
required every time before starting the application).
* If the Kafka and Zookeeper servers are running on a remote machine, then the
`advertised.host.name` setting in the `config/server.properties` file must be
set to the machine's IP address.
+## Modern Kafka Connector
+
+Starting with Flink 1.7, it will provide a new connector for the modern Kafka.
It is different from any previous Kafka connector, it does not bind a fixed
version of Kafka client, but it will track and support the latest version of
Kafka Client.
+The modern Kafka connector does not rely on any older version of the kafka
connector and relies only on the underlying implementation of the kafka
connector, which allows it to get rid of the historical burden and keep up with
the latest version of the Kafka client.
