Schema Registry options for Strimzi Kafka

[karan alang]

Hello -

We have Strimzi Kafka installed on kubernetes (on GCP, as well as onPrem).
I'm looking for feedback on the Schema Registry options -

1.  Confluent Schema Registry
2. Karapace
3. any others

There is a strimzi registry operator as well, but that has not been updated
in the last 3 years
https://github.com/lsst-sqre/strimzi-registry-operator

Has anyone used this ?

Pls let me know.

thanks!

Re: Kafka OAuth authentication using OKTA

[Shirolkar, Anup]

Hi Richard,

Thanks for the pointer.
Yes, I am aware of it, and I have altered the strings before sharing, so those 
are not actual credentials.

Thanks.

Hi Anup,

I don't think I can help you with your problem, but it appears you've
included some credentials in your message with the KAFKA_OPTS
Please check that you haven't got an issue now with leaked credentials

Kind regards,

Announcing the Community Over Code 2025 Streaming Track

[James Hughes]

Hi all,

Community Over Code , the ASF conference,
will be held in Minneapolis, Minnesota,

September 11-14, 2025. The call for presentations
 is open now through
April 21, 2025.

I am one of the co-chairs for the stream processing track, and we would
love to see you there and hope that you will consider submitting a talk.

About the Streaming track:

There are many top-level ASF projects which focus on and push the envelope
for stream and event processing.  ActiveMQ, Beam, Bookkeeper, Camel, Flink,
Kafka, Pulsar, RocketMQ, and Spark are all house-hold names in the stream
processing and analytics world at this point.  These projects show that
stream processing has unique characteristics requiring deep expertise.  On
the other hand, users need easy to apply solutions.  The streaming track
will host talks focused on the use cases and advances of these projects as
well as other developments in the streaming world.

Thanks and see you in September!

Jim
