Skipping bad records with the Kafka Connect JDBC sink connector

Read Original

This technical article explains a limitation of the Kafka Connect JDBC sink connector: its lack of built-in error handling for bad data records. It provides a practical solution using the `kafka-consumer-groups` tool to manually reset the consumer offset, allowing the connector to skip problematic messages and continue processing. The guide includes example commands and configurations for testing the workaround.
