You can either upgrade to an Enterprise Edition license, or generate a trial license key that's valid for 30 days. Use this connector in conjunction with the redpanda_migrator output to migrate topics between Apache Kafka brokers. The redpanda_migrator input uses the Franz Kafka client library. Introduced in version 4.37.0.

Waits for the redpanda_migrator output to acknowledge the writes before updating the Kafka consumer group offset. Provides the same delivery guarantees and ordering semantics as the redpanda input. Specify a consumer group to make this input consume one or more topics and automatically balance the topic partitions across any other connected clients with the same consumer group. Otherwise, topics are consumed in their entirety or with explicit partitions. Metrics This input emits an input_redpanda_migrator_lag metric with topic and partition labels for each consumed topic. The metric records the number of produced messages that remain to be read from each topic/partition pair by the specified consumer group. Metadata This input adds the following metadata fields to each message: - kafka_key - kafka_topic - kafka_partition - kafka_offset - kafka_lag - kafka_timestamp_ms - kafka_timestamp_unix - All record headers Fields seed_brokers A list of broker addresses to connect to in order. Use commas to separate multiple addresses in a single list item. Type: array # Examples seed_brokers: - localhost:9092 seed_brokers: - foo:9092 - bar:9092 seed_brokers: - foo:9092,bar:9092 client_id An identifier for the client connection. Type: string Default: benthos tls Override system defaults with custom TLS settings. Type: object tls.enabled Whether custom TLS settings are enabled. Type: bool Default: false tls.skip_cert_verify Whether to skip server-side certificate verification. Type: bool Default: false tls.enable_renegotiation Whether to allow the remote server to repeatedly request renegotiation. Enable this option if you’re seeing the error message local error: tls: no renegotiation. Type: bool Default: false Requires version 3.45.0 or newer tls.root_cas Specify a certificate authority to use (optional). This is a string that represents a certificate chain from the parent-trusted root certificate, through possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" # Examples root_cas: |- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- tls.root_cas_file Specify the path to a root certificate authority file (optional). This is a file, often with a .pem extension, which contains a certificate chain from the parent-trusted root certificate, through possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. Type: string Default: "" # Examples root_cas_file: ./root_cas.pem tls.client_certs A list of client certificates to use. For each certificate, specify values for either the cert and key fields, or cert_file and key_file fields. Type: array Default: [] # Examples client_certs: - cert: foo key: bar client_certs: - cert_file: ./example.pem key_file: ./example.key tls.client_certs[].cert A plain text certificate to use. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].key A plain text certificate key to use. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].cert_file The path of a certificate to use. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].key_file The path of a certificate key to use. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].password A plain text password for when the private key is password encrypted in PKCS#1 or PKCS#8 format. The obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm is not supported for the PKCS#8 format. The pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm does not authenticate ciphertext, and is vulnerable to padding oracle attacks which may allow an attacker to recover the plain text password. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" # Examples password: foo password: ${KEY_PASSWORD} sasl Specify one or more methods of SASL authentication, which are tried in order. If the broker supports the first mechanism, all connections use that mechanism. If the first mechanism fails, the client picks the first supported mechanism. Connections fail if the broker does not support any client mechanisms. Type: array # Examples sasl: - mechanism: SCRAM-SHA-512 password: bar username: foo sasl[].mechanism The SASL mechanism to use. Type: string Option Summary AWS_MSK_IAM AWS IAM based authentication as specified by the aws-msk-iam-auth java library. OAUTHBEARER OAuth bearer-based authentication. PLAIN Plain text authentication. SCRAM-SHA-256 SCRAM-based authentication as specified in RFC5802. SCRAM-SHA-512 SCRAM-based authentication as specified in RFC5802. none Disable SASL authentication. sasl[].username A username to provide for PLAIN or SCRAM-* authentication. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].password A password to provide for PLAIN or SCRAM-* authentication. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].token The token to use for a single session’s OAUTHBEARER authentication. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].extensions Key/value pairs to add to OAUTHBEARER authentication requests. Type: object sasl[].aws Contains AWS specific fields for when the mechanism is set to AWS_MSK_IAM. Type: object sasl[].aws.region The AWS region to target. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.endpoint Specify a custom endpoint for the AWS API. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.credentials Manually configure the AWS credentials to use (optional). For more information, see Amazon Web Services. Type: object sasl[].aws.credentials.profile A profile from ~/.aws/credentials to use. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.credentials.id The ID of credentials to use. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.credentials.secret The secret for the credentials being used. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.credentials.token The token for the credentials being used. This is required when using short term credentials. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.credentials.from_ec2_role Use the credentials of a host EC2 machine configured to assume an IAM role associated with the instance. Type: bool Default: false Requires version 4.2.0 or newer sasl[].aws.credentials.role A role ARN to assume. Type: string Default: "" sasl[].aws.credentials.role_external_id An external ID to provide when assuming a role. Type: string Default: "" topics A list of topics to consume from. Use commas to separate multiple topics in a single element. When a consumer_group is specified, partitions are automatically distributed across consumers of a topic. Otherwise, all partitions are consumed. Alternatively, you can specify explicit partitions to consume by using a colon after the topic name. For example, foo:0 would consume the partition 0 of the topic foo. This syntax supports ranges. For example, foo:0-10 would consume partitions 0 through to 10 inclusive. It is also possible to specify an explicit offset to consume from by adding another colon after the partition. For example, foo:0:10 would consume the partition 0 of the topic foo starting from the offset 10. If the offset is not present (or remains unspecified) then the field start_from_oldest determines which offset to start from. Type: array # Examples topics: - foo - bar topics: - things.* topics: - foo,bar topics: - foo:0 - bar:1 - bar:3 topics: - foo:0,bar:1,bar:3 topics: - foo:0-5 regexp_topics Whether listed topics are interpreted as regular expression patterns for matching multiple topics. When topics are specified with explicit partitions, this field must remain set to false. Type: bool Default: false rack_id A rack identifier for this client. Type: string Default: "" instance_id When you specify a consumer_group, assign a unique value to instance_id to define the group’s static membership, which can prevent unnecessary rebalances during reconnections. When you assign an instance ID, the client does not automatically leave the consumer group when it disconnects. To remove the client, you must use an external admin command on behalf of the instance ID. Type: string Default "" # Examples instance_id: redpanda_input_5 instance_id: redpanda_input_6 rebalance_timeout When you specify a consumer_group, rebalance_timeout sets a time limit for all consumer group members to complete their work and commit offsets after a rebalance has begun. The timeout excludes the time taken to detect a failed or late heartbeat, which indicates a rebalance is required. Type: string Default: 45s session_timeout When you specify a consumer_group, session_timeout sets the maximum interval between heartbeats sent by a consumer group member to the broker. If a broker doesn’t receive a heartbeat from a group member before the timeout expires, it removes the member from the consumer group and initiates a rebalance. broker Type: string Default: 1m heartbeat_interval When you specify a consumer_group, heartbeat_interval sets how frequently a consumer group member should send heartbeats to Apache Kafka. Apache Kafka uses heartbeats to make sure that a group member’s session is active. You must set heartbeat_interval to less than one-third of session_timeout. This field is equivalent to the Java heartbeat.interval.ms setting. client Type: string Default: 3s start_from_oldest Determines whether to consume from the oldest available offset, otherwise messages are consumed from the latest offset. This setting is applied when creating a new consumer group or the saved offset no longer exists. Type: bool Default: true fetch_max_bytes The maximum number of bytes that a broker tries to send during a fetch. If individual records are larger than the fetch_max_bytes value, brokers still send them. Type: string Default: 50MiB fetch_max_wait The maximum period of time a broker can wait for a fetch response to reach the required minimum number of bytes (fetch_min_bytes). Type: string Default: 5s fetch_min_bytes The minimum number of bytes that a broker tries to send during a fetch. This field is equivalent to the Java setting fetch.min.bytes. Type: string Default: 1B fetch_max_partition_bytes The maximum number of bytes that are consumed from a single partition in a fetch request. This field is equivalent to the Java setting fetch.max.partition.bytes. If a single batch is larger than the fetch_max_partition_bytes value, the batch is still sent so that the client can make progress. Type: string Default: 1MiB consumer_group An optional consumer group. When specified, the partitions of specified topics are automatically distributed across consumers sharing a consumer group, and partition offsets are automatically committed and resumed under this name. Consumer groups are not supported when explicit partitions are specified to consume from in the topics field. Type: string commit_period The period of time between each commit of the current partition offsets. Offsets are always committed during shutdown. Type: string Default: 5s metadata_max_age The maximum period of time after which metadata is refreshed. Reducing this value increases the frequency with which newly-created topics are identified. Type: string Default: 5m partition_buffer_bytes A buffer size (in bytes) for each consumed partition, which allows the internal queuing of records before they are flushed. Increasing this value may improve throughput but results in higher memory utilization. Each buffer can grow slightly beyond this value. Type: string Default: 1MB auto_replay_nacks Whether to automatically replay messages that are rejected (nacked) at the output level. If the cause of rejections is persistent, leaving this option enabled can result in back pressure. Set auto_replay_nacks to false to delete rejected messages. Disabling auto replays can greatly improve memory efficiency of high throughput streams as the original shape of the data is discarded immediately upon consumption and mutation. Type: bool Default: true topic_lag_refresh_period The interval between refresh cycles. During each cycle, this input queries the Repanda Connect server to calculate the topic lag - the number of produced messages that remain to be read from each topic/partition pair by the specified consumer group.
