Hi Ryanne, This KIP is fantastic. It provides a great vision for how MirrorMaker should evolve in the Kafka project.
I have a question on cycle detection - In a scenario where I have 3 clusters replicating between each other, it seems it may be easy to misconfigure the connectors if auto topic creation is turned on so that records become replicated to increasingly longer topic names (until the topic name limit is reached). Consider clusters us-west, us-central, us-east: us-west: topic us-central: us-west.topic us-east: us-central.us-west.topic us-west: us-east.us-central.us-west.topic us-central: us-west.us-east.us-central.us-west.topic I’m not sure whether this scenario would actually justify implementing additional measures to avoid such a configuration, rather than ensuring that the documentation is clear on how to avoid such scenarios - would be good to hear what others think on this. Excited to see the discussion on this one.
