Omar Al-Safi commented on CAMEL-16060:
--------------------------------------

for your info, [camel-vertx-kafka 
|https://camel.apache.org/components/latest/vertx-kafka-component.html], uses 
only message key. As we know, message key can be as well partition key and thus 
made no sense to keep two keys headers which may lead to confusion.

> camel-kafka - decouple kafka.PARTITION_KEY from kafka.KEY

>    Affects Versions: 3.7.0, 2.25.3

> 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.
