I would like to initiate voting for KIP-55 ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-55%3A+Secure+Quotas+for+Authenticated+Users). Since the KIP has changed quite a lot since the last vote, we will discard the previous vote and start this new voting thread.
KIP-55 extends the existing client-id quota implementation to enable secure quotas for multi-user environments. The KIP proposes a flexible, unified design that supports quotas at <user, client-id>, <user> or <client-id> levels. It retains compatibility with the existing <client-id> quotas when new user level quotas are not configured. Thank you... Regards, Rajini
