eliaslevy commented on issue #6577: [FLINK-7964] Add Apache Kafka 1.0/1.1 connectors URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/6577#issuecomment-418429475 @pnowojski I mean that the Flink Kafka connector need not embedded the Kafka version into the connector artifact name. Obviously, the connector would depend on a specific Kafka client version artifact that would be targeted by the reflection code. Re: 0.10. As I mentioned above, you can use a newer client against a 0.10 broker. If you try to use transactions against the 0.10 broker, the client will raise `UnsupportedVersionException`. That will let the connector know that the broker does not support transactions. From the `KafkaProducer` documentation: > This client can communicate with brokers that are version 0.10.0 or newer. Older or newer brokers > may not support certain client features. For instance, the transactional APIs need broker versions > 0.11.0 or later. You will receive an UnsupportedVersionException when invoking an API that is not > available in the running broker version.
