Version: 1.3.3
Release: January 2025
Key New Features

Request ability to read from specific partition

TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Apache Kafka supports the ability to read from specific partition. Each topic can have multiple partitions, and each partition holds a subset of the data.

Seek Based on Offset, Timestamp

Seeking allows you to move to a specific offset or timestamp, enabling flexible consumption.

Seek By Offset: In Apache Kafka, seeking by offset refers to the process of moving a consumer's position to a specific offset within a topic partition. This is useful when you want to read messages from a particular point in a partition, whether for reprocessing or starting from a known offset.

Seek By Timestamp: Seeking by timestamp in Kafka allows you to start consuming messages from a specific point in time.

Retry on error

Using the Retry on Error tab, you can set the number of times the flow tries to run the activity on encountering an error that can be fixed on retrial. The errors such as waiting for a server to start, intermittent connection failures, or connection timeout can be fixed on retrial.

Support for Azure Event Hub

Azure Event Hubs provides an Apache Kafka endpoint on an event hub, which enables you to connect to the event hub using the Kafka protocol. You can use an event hub's Kafka endpoint from your applications without any code changes.
