KIP-731 — Record Rate Limiting for Kafka Connect
Discussion Connect
Adds producer-level throughput quotas to Kafka Connect tasks, configurable per connector, to prevent a single connector from exhausting shared network bandwidth or overwhelming downstream systems. Connect has no QoS mechanism, so a high-throughput connector (e.g. MirrorMaker) can starve other connectors or saturate external endpoints that have no rate-limiting of their own.
