Hi Dor, Yep, we're using Mirrormaker 2.0 currently, migrated from MM 1 with no real issues. Admittedly the documentation is a bit lacking currently, but between the KIP <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-382%3A+MirrorMaker+2.0> and the occasional code reading, we got there fine. One caveat to my experience - it's built on top of Kafka Connect, and as we already had a cluster of KC workers to stream data into/out of our Kafka cluster from various sources, MM 2 was easy to deploy, just another config. So if you're starting from scratch, there might be some overhead around getting your Kafka Connect workers deployed and configured correctly. But if you're looking to run a hot/warm (main/backup) cluster scenario, MM 2 is ideal.
