Hi Haiying, Thanks for the KIP!
1. Do you plan to add support for transactional consumers? Currently, the consumer doesn't return the aborted transaction records to the handler. 2. To access the remote storage directly, the client might need additional certificates / keys. How do you plan to expose those configs on the client? 3. Will it support the Queues for Kafka feature KIP-932 <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-932%3A+Queues+for+Kafka>? And so on. -- Kamal On Tue, Dec 2, 2025 at 10:29 AM Haiying Cai via dev <[email protected]> wrote: > For some reason, the KIP link was truncated in the original email.
