-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow configuring Kafka sink connectors to start 
processing records from the end of topics
                 Key: KAFKA-5827
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5827
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: KafkaConnect
            Reporter: Behrang Saeedzadeh


As far as I can see, Kafka connectors start exporting data of a topic from its 
beginning. We have a topic that contains a few million old records that we 
don't need but we would like to start exporting new records that are added to 
the topic.

Basically:

* When the connector is started for the first time and it does not have a 
current offset stored, it should start consuming data from the end of topics
* When the connector is restarted and has a current offset stored somewhere, it 
should start from that offset
