[Doc] Kafka input ACL permissions #326

Open lucabelluccini opened 5 years ago

lucabelluccini commented 5 years ago

It would be interesting to add:

A list of required ACL permissions for each resource:
- DESCRIBE Topic
- READ Topic
Few pointers to up to date documentation, such as https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#security_authz

@karenzone We can work together on this. I can make a first pass on describing necessary ACLs, and dig out a few more Kafka doc examples...

Couple of docs I've dug out so far:

Kafka Improvement Proposals https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-11+-+Authorization+Interface https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-290%3A+Support+for+Prefixed+ACLs

A slightly older doc which has some examples of their use in practice https://developer.ibm.com/opentech/2017/05/31/kafka-acls-in-practice/
