Connect Amazon MSK cluster to on-premises web server?

Question

I am trying out AWS MSK and created a cluster following the tutorial. What I want to know is, how can I connect my on-premises web sever to the created cluster as a producer. The tutorial only mention how to use AWS MSK with ec2 instance. Is there any other tutorial or blog post that I can refer to?

There are several methods to connect to your AWS MSK clusters outside of your VPC.  
VPN: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/vpn-connections.html  
VPC Peering: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/peering/what-is-vpc-peering.html  
VPC Transit Gateway: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/tgw/what-is-transit-gateway.html  
AWS Direct Connect: https://aws.amazon.com/directconnect/  
REST Proxy: A REST proxy can be installed on an instance running within your VPC. REST proxies allow your producers and consumers to communicate to the cluster through HTTP API requests.

Hi,  
This stackoverflow article describes a way for on-premise machines to access the MSK cluster through a kafka Rest Proxy framework.  
  
Hope this helps,
