Hello everyone, I’ve prepared a small POC to explore an option for disabling the automatic creation of internal topics in Kafka Connect. The goal is to validate whether this approach could help in scenarios where internal topics contain information about many connectors, and accidental removal or renaming of topics in the configuration causes issues.
The pull request with description: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/20384 I’d appreciate your review and feedback on the idea, the proposed behavior, and the configuration approach before moving forward with a full implementation.
