Hi, For our current project we need to use the Kafka REST Proxy. Is it possible to deploy this with the current version of the kafka-operator? If not, is it planned to support this? Thanks. Best regards. |

Are you referring to the Confluent Kafka Proxy? If so, I'm afraid it's not available under an open source license. As such we can't easily integrate it and it's not on our roadmap. What was it you needed from the REST proxy? It's possible that there's an alternative solution to your requirements using Stackable. |

Our use case is sending alert notifications from Grafana to Kafka, as it supports using the REST Proxy. Before trying Stackable, we were using Strimzi Kafka operator and it provides a Kafka Bridge for this. I thought it was the same as the REST Proxy, but it seems it's not (see https://github.com/strimzi/strimzi-kafka-bridge).
I've just deployed the Strimzi Kafka Bridge using the operator connected to the Kafka cluster deployed with Stackable and it seems to work just fine. I thought it required deploying Kafka with the Strimzi operator, but it seems to work as standalone. This works for us, at least for now.
Thanks.
