Features ✨​

Addition of a consumer group policy​

You can now ensure smooth Kafka consumer group operation by enforcing naming policies on groupId, clientId and policies on timeouts.

Consistent vcluster name in passthrough mode​

Historically when running in Passthrough mode, we had a unique vcluster for each user. Now all users will share the same vcluster named passthrough.

Expired token error includes username​

When a token was expired or another token error, we always set username as anonymous. Now, if a token has expired, we'll set username with it's username claim info.

General fixes 🔨​

• Fix a bug where we could surface internal headers on concentrated topics which would confuse Kafka streams
• Fix a bug in CreateTopics verb handling when validate_only = true, we would create the actual topic
• ProducerRateLimitingPolicy now requires maximumBytesPerSecond to be explicitly set
• Caching interceptor now better handles transaction markers
• When creating interceptors with empty config this is now surfaced as an error
