> decouple kafka.PARTITION_KEY from kafka.KEY
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CAMEL-16060
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-16060
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: camel-kafka
> Affects Versions: 3.7.0, 2.25.3
> Reporter: Jens Kordowski
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently, the camel-kafka producer requires the definition of
> kafka.PARTITION_KEY *and* kafka.KEY to specify the partition to send to.
> While the key is usually used to determine the partition to send to, I don't
> understand the hard limitation on this header, when specifically defining the
> exact partition to send to anyway (via kafka.PARTITION_KEY).
> Also, this is not clearly stated in the documentation.
> Not sure, if this qualifies as bug or improvement, looks like a limitation to
> me. I can create a PR, if desired.
