Integrate Confluent Schema Registry on App Connect Enteprise installed On Premises

The proposed idea is to create a native connector that can be instantiated like the other connectors in the palette and that is able to integrate the confluent schema registry to produce or consume an event on Kafka according to an avro schema, a json schema or protobuf.

    Idea review. Thank you for taking the time to raise this suggestion, which we agree would improve the product. Whilst we have the ability to inspect Kafka properties which highlight the avro schema in use, it would be good to have the KafkaConsumer and KafkaProducer directly interact (download/upload) with the schema from the registry, and place it in to the environment tree ready for use in a downstream Java Compute node. This topic has already been raised under idea APPC-I-663 so to avoid the dilution of future voting, we are returning this idea as a duplicate and respectfully ask future readers to consider placing a comment and vote on to 663 (https://integration-development.ideas.ibm.com/ideas/APPC-I-663).
