Sameer when you say that you need to "consume from and produce to a topic" to me that seems like a good fit for Kafka Streams. Streaming your data out of Kafka for a transform and back in has some fundamental costs and operational challenges involved. Are the events in your stream stateless? If it isn't stateless streams will ensure a consistent playback of events if needed. Without knowing more about your pipeline it is hard to make recommendations. Are you possibly using Kafka as a distributed queue?
