How to Replace Expired SSL certificates in Confluent Kafka Production Cluster without any downtime

Hi ,

I would like to know how we can replace expired SSL certificates with newly generated SSL certificates for Confluent Kafka Production Cluster without any cluster downtime ?

It must also be ensured that producers and consumers do not break due to new SSL certificates .

To dynamically update expired SSL/TLS certificates on an existing broker trust store, you can use the kafka-configs command inlcuded in this section:

Updating SSL Trust Store of an Existing Listener

Based on the docs, “expired certificates are updated on brokers without a rolling restart).”
