title: How to send continuous HTTP streaming data to kafka?
body: <p>We have a system (Example System A) that sends time series data via HTTP. </p>
  
  <p>I would now like to introduce Apache Kafka into the system. </p>
  
  <p>The idea for me would be to have a Kafka server running, where System A as soon as receiving time series messages, publishes this message to the Apache Kafka server.</p>
  
  <p>Here, I have a doubt, how to publish time series data which is coiming through HTTP protocal?</p>
  
  <p>here is a example.</p>
  
  <p>i have below url to collect the data:</p>
