  1. 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.

  8. 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…
