Jason Gustafson created KAFKA-3254: -------------------------------------- Summary: Add Connect storage topic prefix for easier configuration Key: KAFKA-3254 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3254 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: copycat Reporter: Jason Gustafson Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Currently Connect depends on two topics: one for storing connector configuration, and other for source connector offsets. In KAFKA-3093, we add another topic to store connector/task statuses, and later it might make sense to use additional topics (e.g. for metrics?). To make it easier for users to configure these topics, it would make sense to have a configuration option "storage.topic.prefix" (or similar) to basically serve as a namespace for the Connect instance. Connect could then create the topics automatically with a default suffix for each storage. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
