This major version upgrade introduces fundamental breaking changes, requiring significant infrastructure and configuration updates. Key changes include a mandatory Java version bump and the complete removal of ZooKeeper support.

Highlights:

• Update Java Runtime: The runtime environment for Kafka Connect must be upgraded to Java 17.
• Migrate to KRaft: Before upgrading to 4.x, the cluster must be migrated from ZooKeeper to KRaft mode. The official upgrade path involves first moving to a bridge release (like 3.9.x) to perform the migration before upgrading to 4.0.

Source: Apache Kafka documentation
Recommendation: Do not merge directly. A multi-step migration is required. First, upgrade to a bridge release to handle the KRaft migration, then update the Java runtime to 17 before upgrading to version 4.1.0.
