KIP-298 — Error Handling in Connect
Accepted Kafka 2.0 Connect
KIP-298 adds configurable error handling to Kafka Connect covering deserialization errors, transformation failures, and sink write failures, with options to log, skip (dead-letter queue), or fail on each error type. Before this change, any record-level error causes the entire task to fail and restart, providing no way to skip or quarantine bad records.
