title: Monitoring UI for Apache kafka - kafka manager vs kafka monitor
body: <p>I am new to kafka. We want to monitor and manage kafka topics. We tried different open source monitoring tools like </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><a href="https://github.com/linkedin/kafka-monitor" rel="noreferrer">kafka-monitor</a></li>
  <li><a href="https://github.com/yahoo/kafka-manager" rel="noreferrer">kafka-manager</a></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Both tools are good. But we are unable to make a decision which should be included in our deployment stack. Which one is better and why, and in which scenario?</p>
  
  <p>'kafka manager' from yahoo looks the older one and 'kafka monitor' from LinkedIn is newer one</p>
