Doesn’t seem to be one. They took the Kafka API so it’s a drop in replacement and redid the implementation from the ground up. Your mileage may vary though.

I am just worries that things like 3rd parties integrating with your Kafka broker will stop working or experience issues. Also, I wonder if SASL_SSL is implemented exactly the same way etc.

hi @sgt - yup SASL_SSL due to the client protos have to be compatible, including the hack you are thinking of.

from a user perspective, existing SASL + SSL + SCRAM will be released next wednesday - so no code changes.
