zander created KAFKA-4570: ----------------------------- Summary: How to transfer extended fields in producing or consuming requests. Key: KAFKA-4570 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4570 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Wish Components: clients Affects Versions: 0.10.1.1 Reporter: zander Priority: Critical
We encounter a problem that we can not transfer extended fields for producing or consuming requests to the broker. We want to validate the producers or consumers in a custom way other than using SSL. In general, such as JMS, it is possible to transfer user-related fields to server. But it seems that Kafka dose not support this, its protocol is very tight and unable to add user-defined fields. So is there any way achieving this goal ? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
