Hello All,

Can we have multiple Kafka clusters using a single Schema Registry (either
Karapace ? If anyone has set up a similar system, pls let me know.

Thanks!

Thanks all for the response, I'm in the process of designing, so one more
question ..
We have Strimzi Kafka deployed and the strimzi schema registry internally
uses the Confluent Schema registry .. i understand this is free to use, but
not integrated with Confluent Cloud (which is ok since we don't use
Confluent cloud) .. If there are other specific limitations in using
Strimzi Schema Registry, I'll need to check if I need to integrate Karapace
Schema Registry instead.

Pls let me know your thoughts.

thanks,
Karan Alang

Nothing prevents you from using the same schema registry for multiple
clusters AFAIK - I used the Confluent schema registry with multiple
clusters in the past

Hi Karan, good question! I’ve asked our Kafka dev team and they think it may be possible in theory, but depending on if you are using a managed Kafka service maybe not supported – e.g. NetApp Instaclustr managed Kafka supports Karapace, but not with multiple clusters.

Good luck, Paul Brebner

Actually schema registry is backed by topics on one Kafka cluster. Applications using it can be where you want using this particular cluster or not. Or maybe not even using Kafka ;)
