It does not support direct integration with MSK, Confluent Kafka, or other Kafka SaaS services. If you want to Private Connect to these Kafka SaaS services, you can deploy a [kafka-proxy](https://github.com/grepplabs/kafka-proxy) at the middle to work as a self-hosted Kafka.

It does not support direct integration with MSK, Confluent Kafka, or other Kafka SaaS services. To connect to these Kafka SaaS services via Private Connect, deploy a [kafka-proxy](https://github.com/grepplabs/kafka-proxy) as an intermediary, effectively treating the service as self-hosted Kafka. For an example, refer to [Set up self-hosted Kafka Private Service Connect by Kafka-proxy in Google Cloud](/tidb-cloud/setup-self-hosted-kafka-private-service-connect.md#set-up-self-hosted-kafka-private-service-connect-by-kafka-proxy). This setup is similar across all Kafka SaaS services. - If your Apache Kafka service is hosted in AWS, follow [Set Up Self-Hosted Kafka Private Link Service in AWS](/tidb-cloud/setup-self-hosted-kafka-private-link-service.md) to ensure that the network connection is properly configured. After setup, provide the following information in the TiDB Cloud console to create the changefeed:
