Thank you Harsha for the reply. Will the patch work with 0.8.2.1? So the general logic is that we write an agent that sends message via https and then may be a servlet using Kafka produce class to authenticate with kafka server on ssl port and so on.... When will the full implementation be available for GA? Thanks again.

Here are the iras https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1690 and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1684 . If you are using REST api to front kafka producer than you can probably make that http server to be on ssl. -- Harsha On May 7, 2015 at 7:07:58 PM, Jamie Wang (jamie.w...@actuate.com) wrote: Hello, It's been a while since my team worked on kafka related project. Btw, previous project using Kafka worked wonderfully for us. Now I have requirement to use https or SSL. I am wondering if the latest version has support for SSL. If not, what is the timeline this functionality would supported and if there is any suggestion on what I can do in the interim to provide a similar functionality using Kakfa. Thank you in advance for your time and help. Jamie
