> MM2 uses AdminClients to create and modify topics; while this simplifies the implementation of MM2 it has the following problems 
>  * It assumes that whoever runs MM2 must have admin access to both source and destination clusters. This assumption is not necessarily valid all the time.
>  * It creates conflict in use-cases where centralised systems or tools manage Kafka resources. 
> It would be easier if customers could provide how they want to manage Kafka topics and configs through admin client or using their centralised system or tools.
