KAKFA nodes support for OAUTHBEARER Security mechanism

We are evaluating the ACE 11 (11.0.0.11) Kafka nodes to connect our internal Kafka broker and we are finding technical limitation with the security mechanism.

Basically, our internal practice is to use OAUTHBEARER with SASL_SSL for all the Kafka consumers but ACE does not offer SASL OAUTHBEARER for Kafka nodes..

Since SASL OAUTHBEARER has been available as a security mechanism since Kafka 2.0.0 and ACE 11.0.0.9+ uses Kafka client 2.6.x, we would like this security mechanism to be offered for Kaka nodes in ACE.

    RFE Review. Thank you for taking the time to submit this idea for enhancement, which we agree would improve the product. We continue to enhance our Kafka support in ACE over multiple releases, and this suggestion would be a further positive step forward. The status of the RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
