Kafka connect and connectors

[luisdavim]

The https://strimzi.io/ operators allow the management of kafka connect and connectors, that works well if we're managing everything with strimzi but not so much if we're using AWS MSK for example, it would be nice if this provider had the same capabilities as strimzi.

These are the custom resources they provide:

MSK has been added, to update this thread.

Strimzi operator is perfectly creating Kafka Connect cluster and manages Kafka Connectors for MSK and other managed installations even without creating kafka cluster itself.

Supporting connectors through this provider would be an awesome addition

Strimzi does support AWS MSK
