# Deploy kafka connectors

StreamNative cloud provides a pluggable architecture for kafka connectors, allowing you to deploy pre-built connectors and
develop custom connectors for external systems, such as databases, messaging systems, block storage, cloud services, or
any other system capable of producing or consuming data.

<Tip title="Tip">
  Currently, the Kafka Connect doesn't support multi-tenancy. All Kafka Connects are deployed to the `public/default` namespace.

  And all of configured topics are also under the `public/default` namespace by default, unless you specified topics with the prefix: `${tenant}.${namespace}.`.

  For more details about the multi-tenancy support for Kafka topics in StreamNative cloud, please refer to the [Kafka Multi-Tenancy](/cloud/build/kafka-clients/advanced-features/kafka-multi-tenancy).

* [Check kafka connect availability](/cloud/connect/kafka-connect/deploy-kafka-connectors/kafka-connect-check)
