In general, we maintain 3 versions, so with AK 4.2 release, 3.9.x would
actually hit EOL.
Given that 4.0 is a major change with ZK removal in favor of KRaft, it
will most likely be maintained a little longer though. We are currently
discussing a 3.9.2 bug-fix release.
But it will depend on overall community demand, if their will be a 3.9.3
bug-fix release or not. In general, I would not expect 3.9.x to be
maintained too much longer, and migrating off ZK, and to upgrade to 4.x
is highly recommended.

Hi kafka team,
Can someone confirm if this KIP is resolved yet -
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15513 ? Or timeline for the same?
I could get it to work for sasl_ssl/scram-sha in broker-broker and
broker-client communication. But this still fails for controller-controller
and broker-controller communication.

Hi Kafka Team,
Currently, I am exploring Kafka's capabilities to store data (acting as a
Data Lake) and forward data (acting as a Data Pipeline) for specific logs
to multiple analytics solutions. I have reviewed many documents online, but
I need some clarification from you.
I would like to confirm whether Kafka can meet the following requirements:
1. *Local Data Lake*: The data lake must be hosted locally to ensure
high availability.
2. *Data Filtering*: We need the ability to filter logs and forward only
selected logs to specific destinations.
3. *Multi-Destination Log Forwarding*: The data pipelines should support
forwarding logs to multiple destinations.
Could you please advise whether Kafka supports these capabilities? Any
relevant documentation or guidance would also be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your assistance, and I look forward to your response
Regards,
Thanawat
