  1. As a developer,
    I want error messages and logs to contain schema names and versions,
    so that I can quickly identify and troubleshoot issues related to specific schemas more efficiently.
    In addition, this improvement is very important when dealing with issues in referenced schemas because it provides more context in error messages and logs, making it easier to diagnose and resolve problems. This can significantly reduce the time spent on debugging and improve overall system maintainability.

  2. As a developer,
    I want to have an enforced compatibility check on all existing schemas when the compatibility level is set to a more restrictive one (or for any change),
    so that I can ensure all schemas comply with the new restrictive compatibility level and maintain consistency in the schema registry.
    In addition, this improvement is important because it prevents potential issues when new schemas are registered or existing ones are updated, thereby increasing the reliability of the schema registry.

  3. As Data Platform Principal Engineer
    I want to use emails as Kafka usernames when OAuth authentication is configured
    so that I can use Databricks as SSO provider to reduce the amount of credentials that I need to manage and share with each user. This also improves security, because it automatically disable the access when someone leaves the company.

    In particular, when I am using a Databricks Service Principal for the authentication, it works as expected. The Databricks Service Principal is identified by an unique UUID. To make it working I have added a Kafka service user with that UUID as…

  4. As application engg,
    I want to develop a csv connector where data is ingested from flat files (CSV) and create a stream of records that can be processed in Apache Kafka. It is similar to what confluent kafka provides here (https://docs.confluent.io/kafka-connectors/spooldir/current/connectors/csv_source_connector.html)

  5. As a Solutions Architect
    I want to have consumer lag for kafka consumers available out of the box
    so that I can correctly monitor streaming applications without having to setup an external prometheus. In addition Consumer lag is the key metric to monitor for end to end health of streaming apps(ie to ensure they are keeping up with demand), you cannot put a streaming app into production with out correct monitoring and alerting on this metric.

    Background
    1. there is a consumer lag on the default metrics dashboard but it does not work.
    2. I contact support and found that…

  7. As a data engineer
    I want Aiven Kafka Connect to offer the option to use the protocol buffer data format when serializíng the events that is sends to a Kafka broker.
    In my specific case, I need it to be possible in a Debezium connector for PostgreSQL.
    Additionally, it would be good to have as a user the option to define oneself the protobuf schema to use for serializing.

  8. As data streaming architect
    I want to be able to export records from Kafka to GCS and use values in the record to define the bucket or file name
    so that I can organize data by those values to make them easier to find and process.

    Use case is a multi-user/multi-tenant application where user info is a value in the record. Need to be able to organize the output in object storage by that value somehow.

  9. As Developer
    I want to use Aiven's S3 sink connector and have the ability to control the size of output files (keep same size even if the traffic changes). In general, the connector has no lags and we want to flush the offset and write to file only when we have enough data. We use offset.flush.interval.ms for it but when the traffic increases, the amount of data arrives in the configured interval is increased and can cause an OOM issue. In addition, when we pause the connector for couple of minutes and we gather a lag, it can also lead…

  11. As a developer,
    I want to programmatically manage my consumers and consumer groups,
    so that I can see the status of them, perform CRUD operations, show members of a group, reset offsets and similar.
    In addition, I want to be able to do so also in Aiven Console.

  12. As SRE Engineer

    I want to customize ACL to allow kafka consumer operations to carry on, even while write lock gets triggered when the disk space reaches threshold limits of 95 or 97%. Given that the Kafka consumers' offset commits are relatively smaller, this option will not be detrimental.

    so that even when disk space reaches critical levels, it will not immediately impact consumer side operations

  13. As a developer,
    I want to make sure schema is being validated not just on client but also on a broker side,
    so that I can make sure all messages in the topic correspond to the same schema and does not contain any mixed schemas.

  14. As Developer, I want to utilize Custom Connectors on Aiven,
    so that I can integrate our proprietary data systems and custom applications with Apache Kafka without having to manage the underlying infrastructure.

    In addition, this will allow developers to concentrate more on the building of business-critical applications instead of getting tied up with infrastructural tasks.

  15. As IT Architect
    I want to provide complete traceability within my microservice mesh where 2 microservice communicate via Outbox pattern via Debezium connector. In order to achieve this, Debezium connector requires some of the OpenTelemtry APIs are on the Kafka Connect classpath.
    I want to have this feature so that I can see complete chain of interactions for specific request, observe what and where time is spent inside particular microservice and find out possible bottlenecks.

  17. As a developer,
    I want to run Karapace as fully managed dedicated service,
    so that I can use it with Apache Kafka running on and outside of Aiven.
    In addition, I can use same Karapace service against multiple Apache Kafka services.

  18. As developer,
    I want to use public CA (i.e. Let's Encrypt),
    so that I can connect to my Apache for Kafka service without installing any additional certificates.
    In addition, I can trust publish authority issuing certificates instead of validating 3rd party certificates.

  20. As a developer
    I want to have the ability to use our own S3 bucket for storing Kafka tiered storage
    so that I can access the data from S3 and query some data for debugging (without streaming all the data to Kafka)
