Sriharsha Chintalapani commented on KAFKA-2162: ----------------------------------------------- [~gwenshap] I think auditing shouldn't just be around security but in general we should log other important things topics created , no.of messages produced etc.. ( I know some of these are exposed via metrics). If we have auditing as a separate interface we can call it around the sub systems like kerberos ticket renewal , session establishment for sasl, ssl etcc.. and doesn't need to tied down to authorizer only > Kafka Auditing functionality > ---------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2162 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2162 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Sriharsha Chintalapani > Assignee: Parth Brahmbhatt > > During Kafka authorization discussion thread .
