 # Integrate Apache Kafka on Confluent Cloud with Service Connector
 
-This page shows the supported authentication types and client types of Apache kafka on Confluent Cloud with Service using Service Connector. You might still be able to connect to Apache kafka on Confluent Cloud in other programming languages without using Service Connector. This page also shows default environment variable names and values (or Spring Boot configuration) you get when you create the service connection. You can learn more about [Service Connector environment variable naming convention](concept-service-connector-internals.md).
