Latest version of Kafka

["Marchant, Hayden " <ha...@citi.com>]

What is the newest version of Kafka that is compatible with Flink 1.4.0? I see the last version of Kafka supported is 0.11 , from documentation, but has any testing been done with Kafka 1.0?

Hi,

Flink as for now provides only a connector for Kafka 0.11, which is using KafkaClient in 0.11.x version. However you should be able to use it for reading to/writing from Kafka 1.0 - Kafka claims (and as far as I know it’s true) that Kafka 1.0 is backward compatible with 0.11.
