If you want to do a seamless migration. I think a better way is to build a cross datacenter Kafka cluster temporarily. So the process is: 1. Add several new Kafka brokers in your new datacenter and add them to the old cluster. 2. Use replica assignment tool to reassign all the partitions to brokers in new datacenter. 3. Perform controlled shutdown on the brokers in old datacenter.
