Step 3: Activate

Next steps after ensuring all clusters are visible and well-connected

Congratulations! Reaching this step means that all your clusters are well connected and continuously being analyzed and monitored by Superstream.

Here is what we are going to do next:

1. Configure Superstream notifications

2. Optimize Superstream automation for each cluster to align with its specific business logic.

3. Activate Superstream automation

Let's start:

1. Configure Superstream notifications

In Superstream Console -> Settings -> System Settings

Select the notifications, channels, and recipients that Superstream should notify.

2. Optimize Superstream automation

In Superstream Console -> Kafka Clusters -> choose a cluster to start with

Each row in the center represents a specific type of optimization that can be configured before activation.

Let's take "Inactive topics cleanup" as an example.

Modifying and saving automation business logic does NOT activate the automation.

Click on the Gear Wheel ⚙️ icon

Adjust the values to align with your business logic, then click "Save."

3. Activate

Once we finish tuning the optimization logic, we can now click on "Activate."

Clicking "Activate" enables Superstream automation. This means jobs will be automatically triggered and executed after the specified delay time. If notifications are configured correctly, you will receive updates when a new job is created and when it is completed.
