I set up Kafka for local run. I have written sample producer and consumer in Java and running from local, by starting server and zookeeper.
I want to use oracle as producer, that will require to write the configuration file(already written), confluent shell script to run it on Unix.

Is there any way to run confluent on Windows, I could not find the batch file confluent in setup?

Also, is there any way to run Oracle as producer, without using confluent script?

Confluent Platform is not supported on Windows. Best option if you have to use Windows is the Docker images, which are fully supported.
