Hello Alex,

Currently Kafka Connect has some simple "T" function on a per-message-basis
since 0.10 release, but that may not be sufficient for your use case.

We are planning to have some Kafka Streams / Connect integration in the
near future, so that users can specify non-Kafka sources / sinks in their
Kafka Streams apps. So if you are OK with this integration that you first
pipe the original stream into Kafka via Connect, and does the aggregation
inside Streams, then this would work for you.
