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.

5. 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".

14. Include custom Kafka topic tags as Prometheus metric labels

    The Aiven platform allows custom key/value tags to be added to resources such as Kafka topics. It would be useful to have these exposed as additional labels on metrics so that alerts can be triggered based on this metadata.

16. Configure CPU threshold for alert mails in kafka

    As a kafka user, I want to configure the threshold used to send CPU warning emails. Right now we are getting emails because the CPU exceeds 50%, which is irrelevant. We know we can configure the emails to go to another mail address but in that case we would loose all other technical mails as well.
    It would also be good for us if we can turn off that single alert.

20. kafka_connect_connector_metrics availability over Prometheus

    Our customer Jago wants to monitor the status of connectors and tasks but currently can't find relevant metrics to do so. They want to be able to monitor the status of connectors and tasks on a dashboard and also get notified whenever a connector has not been running for X minutes.

    Jago has a connector running but can not find the metrics for kafka.connect:type=connector-metrics,connector=*.

    The specific metrics they are looking for is the one related to the status of a connector. For example, in the customers current self-managed kafka connect, they have the following metrics. This is convenient because they can get notified whenever a connector is not running.
    kafkaconnectconnector_metrics{status="running",connector="lfs-source-kafka-notifications",} 1.0

    They are also facing a similar issue with task status as they don't see metrics for it, while on their current cluster has:
    kafkaconnectconnector_status{connector="lfs-source-kafka-notification-created",status="running",task="0",} 1.0

    They have shared the attached metrics txt related to that connector that they got from prometheus.
