Hi everyone

I’m glad to announce third developer preview of our Kafka connector 3.0, which based on new DCP client and compatible with Confluent Platform.

This release includes operation improvements:

  • better distribution of workload by grouping Couchbase partitions between Kafka Connect tasks so that they will use less socket connections to the server
  • new setting use_snapshot which tells connector to buffer full DCP snapshot and only then commit into Kafka
  • smaller improvements and bug fixes like discovering bucket configuration before running tasks (allows to use connector on MacOS where Couchbase buckets have 64 partitions), and also it pulls the latest DCP client, which brings more stabililty.
