Ewen Cheslack-Postava commented on KAFKA-4029: ---------------------------------------------- I think the KIP's goal of keeping the interface consistent despite the fact we don't have specifically a REST API with SSL yet is a good idea. Hopefully the basics of just getting a secured, encrypted connection should be mostly straightforward. Something that might be missing from the KIP so far is discussion of authorization / REST API ACLs. It definitely doesn't need to be implemented together, but might be worth at least mentioning what we *aren't* doing even though there is already demand for it. > SSL support for Connect REST API > -------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-4029 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4029 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: KafkaConnect > Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava > Assignee: Jakub Scholz > > Currently the Connect REST API only supports http. We should also add SSL > support so access to the REST API can be secured. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
