-== Introduction
-This is Kafka specific implementation for Spring Cloud Stream Binder.
-This implementation supports Kafka versions 0.9 and above. In the following sections, you can find more details
-on how you can work with Spring Cloud Stream Kafka binder,
-in what concerns mapping the Spring Cloud Stream concepts onto the middleware concepts.
+= Introduction
+This guide describes the Apache Kafka implementation of the Spring Cloud Stream Binder.
+It contains information about its design, usage and configuration options, as well as information on how the Stream Cloud Stream concepts map into Apache Kafka specific constructs.
 
-==== Classpath Detection
+= Usage
+
+For using the Apache Kafka binder, you just need to add it to your Spring Cloud Stream application, using the following Maven coordinates:
 
-By default, Spring Cloud Stream relies on Spring Boot's auto-configuration to configure the binding process.
-Following are the maven coordinates for including the Kafka binder in a Spring Cloud Stream application.

-The Kafka Binder implementation maps the destination to a Kafka topic.
-The consumer group maps directly to the same Kafka concept.
-Spring Cloud Stream does not use the high-level consumer, but implements a similar concept for the simple consumer.
+The Apache Kafka Binder implementation maps each destination to an Apache Kafka topic.
+The consumer group maps directly to the same Apache Kafka concept.
+Partitioning also maps directly to Apache Kafka partitions as well.

 ====
-The Kafka binder will use the `partitionCount` setting as a hint to create a topic with the given partition count (in conjunction with the `minPartitionCount`, the maximum of the two being the value being used).
+The Kafka binder will use the `partitionCount` setting of the producer as a hint to create a topic with the given partition count (in conjunction with the `minPartitionCount`, the maximum of the two being the value being used).
 Exercise caution when configuring both `minPartitionCount` for a binder and `partitionCount` for an application, as the larger value will be used.
 If a topic already exists with a smaller partition count and `autoAddPartitions` is disabled (the default), then the binder will fail to start.
 If a topic already exists with a smaller partition count and `autoAddPartitions` is enabled, new partitions will be added.
