# Exporting cAdvisor Stats to Kafka
cAdvisor supports exporting stats to [Kafka](http://kafka.apache.org/). To use Kafka, you need to provide the additional flags to cAdvisor:
Set the storage driver as Kafka:
```
-storage_driver=kafka
```
If no broker are provided it will default to a broker listening at localhost:9092, with 'stats' as the default topic.
Specify a Kafka broker address:
```
-storage_driver_kafka_broker_list=localhost:9092
```
Specify a Kafka topic:
```
-storage_driver_kafka_topic=myTopic
```
As of version 9.0. Kafka supports TLS client auth:
```
# To enable TLS client auth support you need to provide the following:
# Location to Certificate Authority certificate
-storage_driver_kafka_ssl_ca=/path/to/ca.pem
# Location to client certificate certificate
-storage_driver_kafka_ssl_cert=/path/to/client_cert.pem
# Location to client certificate key
-storage_driver_kafka_ssl_key=/path/to/client_key.pem
# Verify SSL certificate chain (default: true)
-storage_driver_kafka_ssl_verify=false
```
