             Summary: Connect EOS mode should periodically call task commit
                 Key: KAFKA-14727
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14727
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: KafkaConnect
    Affects Versions: 3.4.0
            Reporter: Greg Harris
            Assignee: Greg Harris


In non-EOS mode, there is a background thread which periodically commits 
offsets for a task. If this thread does not have resources to flush on the 
framework side (records, or offsets) it still calls the task's commit() method 
to update the internal state of the task.

In EOS mode, there is no background thread, and all offset commits are 
performed on the main task thread in response to sending records to Kafka. This 
has the effect of only triggering the task's commit() method when there are 
records to send to Kafka, which is different than non-EOS mode.

In order to bring the two modes into better alignment, and allow tasks reliant 
on the non-EOS empty commit() behavior to work in EOS mode out-of-the-box, EOS 
mode should provide offset commits periodically for tasks which do not produce 
records.
