 For example:
 
 - Use a [Slack](/components/connectors/out-of-the-box-connectors/slack.md) or [Microsoft Teams](/components/connectors/out-of-the-box-connectors/microsoft-teams.md) Connector to notify people of pending or completed processes in a human task orchestration onboarding flow.
-- In microservices orchestration, use a [Kafka](/components/connectors/out-of-the-box-connectors/kafka.md) Connector to add real-time messaging to your automated processes.
+- In microservices orchestration, use a [Kafka](/components/connectors/out-of-the-box-connectors/kafka.md) connector to add real-time messaging to your automated processes.
 
 Connectors are often configured as a [BPMN process](/components/concepts/processes.md) task, with the required integration parameters already set up for easy configuration. This helps remove the need for you to write custom integration programming code.
