+## Apache Kafka cluster
+
+This docker compose provides 3 broker nodes and 1 zookeeper node Kafka Cluster.
+This helps to test Kafka application on local instead of a real cluster.
+
+The configurations are bare minimum to start the server and could be changed based on requirement
+
+There is also a Kafka UI application available at http://localhost:8080
+
+![](../images/multi-broker-kafka-cluster.png)
+
+### How to start
+    
+```bash
+docker-compose up
+
+use -d to run in detached mode
+```
+> If you don't see changes to the cluster after updating the yml, try doing
+> `docker compose down` and then start the cluster again.
+
+### Port Mapping
+| Port | Description             |
+|------|-------------------------|
+| 2181 | Zookeeper               |
+| 9092 | Kafka Broker 1          |
+| 9093 | Kafka Broker 2          |
+| 9094 | Kafka Broker 3          |
+| 8080 | Kafka UI                |
+| 1099 | JMX PORT on all brokers |
