What's includedWhy it matters
SLSA Provenance

Build Level 3

Tamper-evident proof of how and from what sources this image was built. Build Level 3 is the highest the SLSA build track defines.

SBOM

CycloneDX SBOM + SPDX SBOM

A software bill of materials in both CycloneDX and SPDX formats so it drops straight into your existing tooling. Audit exactly what you're shipping.

VEX

A Vulnerability Exploitability exchange document, Docker's assessment of which CVEs actually affect this image and which don't apply, so you can focus on real risk instead of chasing false positives.

DHI Image Sources

Available

A link to everything used to build the image, package source code, Git repos, and build files, so you can audit or reproduce the build and stay compliant with open source licenses.

Every known vulnerability in this image, shown in full rather than hidden. The VEX data flags which ones actually apply, so you can tell real exposure from noise before you ship.

Changelog

Exactly what changed in this build, down to the package bumps and fixes behind the version you're pulling.

Secrets scan

Verifies no keys, tokens, or credentials were accidentally baked into the image.

Virus scan

The image layers were scanned for known malware signatures before publishing.


About Kafka

Apache Kafka is a distributed event streaming platform capable of handling trillions of events per day. Originally developed by LinkedIn and later open-sourced as an Apache project, Kafka has become the de facto standard for building real-time data pipelines and streaming applications.

Kafka provides a high-throughput, low-latency publish-subscribe messaging system that stores streams of records in categories called topics. Its distributed architecture ensures fault tolerance through data replication across multiple brokers, making it highly reliable for mission-critical applications. Common use cases include real-time analytics, log aggregation, stream processing, event sourcing, and serving as the central nervous system for modern data architectures.
