I am trying to collect logs/metrics from kafka connector in GCP.

I read the documentation

It seems that ops agent only support till Apache Kafka Version 3.0.0 and I am using Kafka version 3.2.3.

May I know if there is any roadmap of version support of Kafka in ops agent?

Or any alternatives I can do for this? Please advise.

From a technical standpoint, there is no hard requirement that the version of Kafka you use is within the range documented. You're free to try using a newer version than what's documented (the Ops Agent will not forbid you from doing this), and it "might" work; it's just not officially supported or tested.

That being said, I tried running version 3.2.3 through the Ops Agent integration tests and they all passed, so there's a decent chance that 3.2.3 would work fine for you.

  • Thanks for your reply. May I know how you do your integration test? From the doc or your custom test? – ikhvjs Oct 05 '22 at 06:58

    I ran through the steps at https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/ops-agent/tree/master/integration_test, however they may or may not be runnable by anyone depending on what level of access they have within GCP. – Jeff Oct 05 '22 at 19:34
