Kraft setup

[Manabolu Sisindri <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi Team,

Can a Kafka Controller Cluster support multiple Kafka setups like ZooKeeper
does (with chroot paths)?"

Existing setup: In existing setup we are using single zookeeper setup for
multiple kafka setups(8). one ZooKeeper cluster handling multiple Kafka
clusters using different paths (/kafka-cluster1, /kafka-cluster2, etc.

Expected one: As we are planning to migrate kafka from zookeeper to kraft
so i would like to know do we have that possibility in kraft like single
kafka controller setup can support multiple kafka setups?

Please help me with your insights on this..

Hi Sisindri,

Thanks for your question.

This is not supported with the current KRaft implementation, and I don't
believe there's any plans to support it in the future.
You will need to migrate from a single ZK cluster to multiple KRaft
quorums, as the final bridge release 3.9 does not support a
chroot-equivalent.
See another thread about this here:

I hope this helps,
Greg
