> Currently, the "transactional.id"s of the Kafka producers in FlinkKafkaProducer are generated based on the task name. This mechanism has some limitations:
>  * It will exceed Kafka's limitation if the task name is too long. (resolved in FLINK-17691)
>  * They will very likely clash each other if the job topologies are similar. (discussed in FLINK-11654)
>  * Only certain "transactional.id" may be authorized by [Prefixed ACLs|https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/kafka/authorization.html#prefixed-acls] on the target Kafka cluster.
> Besides, the spring community has introduced the [setTransactionIdPrefix|https://docs.spring.io/spring-kafka/api/org/springframework/kafka/core/DefaultKafkaProducerFactory.html#setTransactionIdPrefix(java.lang.String)] method to their Kafka client.
> Therefore, I think it will be necessary to have this feature in the Flink Kafka connector. 
>  
> As discussed in FLINK-11654, the possible solution will be,
>  * either introduce an additional method called setTransactionalIdPrefix(String) in the FlinkKafkaProducer,
>  * or use the existing "transactional.id" properties as the prefix.
>  And the behavior of the "transactional.id" generation will be
>  * keep the behavior as it was if absent,
>  * use the one if present as the prefix for the TransactionalIdsGenerator.
