Comment: was deleted
(was: Now that https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5505 maybe some
motivation behind this ticket has been addressed. Besides that, allowing a task
to delay shutting down after stop has been signaled might interfere with
rebalancing.
If there's no objection I'd suggest to close this ticket as "won't fix")
> Allow configuring Kafka sink connectors to start processing records from the
> end of topics

> Key: KAFKA-5827
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5827
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Reporter: Behrang Saeedzadeh
> Priority: Major
>
> As far as I can see, Kafka connectors start exporting data of a topic from
> the beginning of its partitions. We have a topic that contains a few million
> old records that we don't need but we would like to start exporting new
> records that are added to the topic.
> Basically:
> * When the connector is started for the first time and it does not have a
> current offset stored, it should start consuming data from the end of topic
> partitions
> * When the connector is restarted and has a current offset for partitions
> stored somewhere, it should start from those offsets
