Is there a tool or way using the Kafka admin api to tell a producer to stop/pause writing to a specific topic?
The use case is basically we need to stop writing to a topic, let the consumers get caught up and then deploy some new code either for the producers or consumers. Our producers will have a way of internally queuing up messages until we finish the deploy and bring the topic back up.
