Hi All, I have a use case whereI have these topicsmy-topic
my-topic-error
my-topic-retry
I have a springboot consumer which consumes from **my-topic** and makes REST call.
- If the api fails will write to my-topic-error
I have ksqldb cluster which should read from my. **my-topic** and take the message payload, along with timestamp give 5 minutes delay (need to implement multiple retry option with time delay 5/15/30 minutes) and send message to **my-topic-retry** \*\*
I would like to understand how I can implement this solution using ksqlDB stream queries?\*\*
I have another retry springboot which consumes from **my-topic-retry and** should try calling REST endpoint and if anything fails it will be sent to **my-topic-dlq**
I am trying to achieve delayed execution of messages. Any suggestion? or this even can be achieved?
Thanks
Satish

I don’t think it’s possible to implement this with ksqlDB. Maybe using Kafka Streams can help (via `Punctuations`).
