1. Support for "Apache Iceberg" format while sinking CDC

   As a developer / DevOps
   I want to be able to Sink CDC data into Apache Iceberg format
   so that I can analyze data using time travel feature of AWS Athena
   In addition, we may find a way for the current "Aiven - Amazon AWS S3 Sink" connector to be able to produce "Apache Iceberg" in addition of "Parquet" format or we may provide a dedicated connector like the one from this repository : https://github.com/tabular-io/iceberg-kafka-connect

   Yours faithfully,
   LCDP

2. Support for "stretched" cluster across multi regions/clouds for Aiven for Apache Kafka

   As a developer / SRE,
   I want to have my Apache Kafka cluster to run across multiple regions and potentially even clouds,
   so that I can ensure high availability setup and have near zero RTO and RPO in case of DR, i.e. network, region or provider failure.
   In addition, I want to benefit from the geo-distributed cluster setup and read/write from/to the geographically closest broker to optimise my network latency and cost.

3. Allow inspected custom code (JARs) in Apache Flink and Apache Kafka Connect

4. Support Grouping of OAuth2/OIDC Users

   As a platform engineer
   I want to group multiple users based on their role (OAuth2/OIDC claim)
   so that I can reduce the number of required Kafka users and ACL entries that need to be managed.

   Currently, every user / identity connecting via OAuth2/OIDC has a 1:1 mapping to a Kafka user (the username is taken from the sub claim). This is cumbersome and leads to significant overhead if for example multiple identities / users with the same permissions want to access the Kafka service. Kafka users and ACLs need to be created for every single identity, even though they share for example the same underlying role.

   Confluent supports this in a feature called "Identity Pools".

5. Monitoring consume lag for kafka not out of the box

   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 consumer lag is an early access feature that they enabled for me, but in order to get it into grafana it requires setting up an external prometheus(we cant do it all natively in Aiven)
   3. Here is support ticket for Reference: #89595

6. Kafka Connect GCS Sink: Support using field values to define bucket name or file name prefix

   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.

7. Aiven's S3 sink connector - Support configure offset flush max size

   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 to OOM without temporary reducing the offset.flush.interval.ms.

9. Support for Protobuf serialization of Events (and Keys) in Aiven Kafka Connnect

   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.

    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.

16. Move Karapace updates out of maintenance updates into IaC definitions

    As a customer
    I want to be able to select Karapace version updates in Terraform code instead of maintenance updates GUI
    so that I can control when Karapace updates are applied from my IaC definition.
    In addition, Karapace updates can introduce service interruptions for users because all consumer instances are terminated. Moving it out of maintenance updates means less user interruptions on often more important maintenance updates.
