Jeff Beagley commented on KAFKA-7157:
-------------------------------------
Also looking for a temporary solution until this is developed. The only thought
I can come up with right now is sinking the date as epoch within downstream
databases, and then converting as needed. However we're using Kafka as a means
of replication for reporting and analytic purposes, so we'd take a huge
performance hit here
> Connect TimestampConverter SMT doesn't handle null values

> Key: KAFKA-7157
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7157
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Affects Versions: 0.10.2.0
> Reporter: Randall Hauch
> Assignee: Valeria Vasylieva
> Priority: Major
>
> TimestampConverter SMT is not able to handle null values (in any versions),
> so it's always trying to apply the transformation to the value. Instead, it
> needs to check for null and use the default value for the new schema's field.
