Create a Backup to Azure Blob Storage for Local Region Restore - DR
As an application owner,
I want to be able to store data in Blob Storage for local recover from an outage using the backups on Blob storage and also be able to restore accidentally dropped topics. This backup would potentially include hundreds of topics.2 votes -
ACL
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

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…

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…1 vote -
Provide documentation for Karapace REST API
As a developer
I want to use a REST API against my Kafka instance
so that I can write simple scripts without using client libraries.It doesn't seem like there's comprehensive API documentation for what endpoints and functionality are supported by the Karapace REST API. The website says it's a drop-in replacement for the Kafka REST API proxy but unless that comes with guarantees that it'll stay up-to-date with any changes in the Confluent Kafka REST API proxy, it's hard to trust that. Some users may find it preferable to just have the documentation for Karapace's endpoints.

Enhance error messages and logs with schema names and versions
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.3 votes -
Enforce schema compatibility check on level change
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 votes -

"Last Used" field on Kafka Certificates in Console/API
As an organization (DevOps/Security/Vendor Manager) using Aiven Kafka,
we want to determine the last connected cert status of Kafka users,
so that we can know whether a kafka user certificate has been successfully updated.We automate certificate rolling to an extent with terraform. Different teams of devs generally own their section of terraform creating Kafka users. As of right now every two years those certs expire, and clicking the "Yes I've updated" in the Aiven console just silences the alert, and provides no real time verification from the running kafka that a certificate has been updated.
This means a user…

In addition, this will also reduce latency of consumer calls.2 votes -
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.

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-connectYours faithfully,

Support for both allow and black lists in Kafka service
As a managed Kafka administrator
I want to have the ability to black-list a bunch of IP addresses I believe are suspicious from my Kafka service, so that I can prevent my service being disrupted by unexpected traffic
In addition, I would like to keep the current allow-list to be able to allow know IPs and a way to resolve a conflict between allow and block list where block list takes priority.1 voteShelved ·AdminMichael Tansini (Product Manager Data Streaming (Kafka and Flink), Aiven.io) responded
at the moment we recommend using our current networking whitelisting capabilities

CSV kafka connector
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)4 votes -
Cluster leader balancing CPU vs Disk - can we choose?
As an OPS Engineer
I want to be able to balance the cluster based on CPU usage rather than Disk usage. The current algorithm focuses on Disk usage which is not optimum for our application.
Can we have an option to apply partition rebalancing based on CPU usage?1 vote -
Kafka versioned updates
As a platform engineer
I want the service updates to be versioned and to be able to select a specific version (Kafka, Karapace, etc) to update to so that I can perform correct change promotion from non-prod to production (instead of being forced to always apply the latest) and so that if a new version is released while an update is in-flight it would not lead to different versions running across the brokers (as is currently the case, which we have experienced can lead to incompatibilities). Additionally, I would like it to be clear what version(s) is currently running in…12 votes -
Add OpenTelemetry API and SDK to enable traceability in Debezium connector
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.2 votes -
Aiven API support for Kafka Connect Java clients
As an AIven developer user
I want to use the Java code generated from Aiven API to communicate with an Aiven managed KafkaConnect cluster
so that I can build micro services in Java platform to manage various connectors on the cluster
In addition, this gives more security for Aiven users and data while the standard REST API supports only BasicAuth.2 votes -
Kafka fined grained ACLs
As an ops engineer,
I want to be able to declare fined grained ACLs
so that I avoid having to grant "admin" rights to users which only need "DeleteRecords" rights on specific topics.
The client uses Kafka Streams, which needs specific rights (https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/streams/developer-guide/security.html#required-acl-setting-for-secure-ak-clusters) which are not covered by aiven predefined rights.
Currently, the "admin" is to broad for such access (I don't want the user to be able to create topics).8 votes
