And I would like to know if it's possible to use the same vault with Kafka SSL without creating jks, pkcs12 or pem files outside the vault or additionally in the server. Does the KIP 519 and related provide any help in this case? If not, any suggestions on how I can achieve this? Thank you for your time. Regards, Sai chandra mouli
