------------------------------
Assignee: Chen He
> Support Kafka to save credentials in Java Key Store on Zookeeper node
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-6602
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6602
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: security
> Reporter: Chen He
> Assignee: Chen He
> Priority: Major
>
> Kafka connect needs to talk to multifarious distributed systems. However,
> each system has its own authentication mechanism. How we manage these
> credentials become a common problem.
> Here are my thoughts:
> # We may need to save it in java key store;
> # We may need to put this key store in a distributed system (topic or
> zookeeper);
> # Key store password may be configured in Kafka configuration;
> I have implement the feature that allows store java key store in zookeeper
> node. If Kafka community likes this idea, I am happy to contribute.
