CCDAK · Question #197

Which two statements about Kafka Connect single message transforms (SMT) are correct? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. Multiple SMTs can be chained together and act on source or sink messages. C. Masking data is a good example of an SMT. Multiple SMTs can be chained to modify records as they pass through Kafka Connect, for both source and sink connectors. Masking sensitive data is a common use case for an SMT, allowing transformations before data reaches Kafka or downstream systems.
