Resolution
In order to connect to Confluent Cloud from AWS Database Migration Service (DMS), the below information is required to establish connectivity:

- Port Number - 9092 is the default port used for client connections to the Kafka broker, as Confluent Cloud exposes both 9092 and 443. More information on this can be found in https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/networking/testing.html#test-connectivity-to-ccloud
- Additional authentication information:
- "SecurityProtocol": "sasl-ssl",
