### Roadmaps - [Eventing Working Group](#Eventing) - [Eventing Sources Working Group](#Eventing-Sources) - [Eventing Kafka Working Group](#Eventing-Kafka) # Eventing ## Next 3 Months (Short-term) ### Spec Solidification Review and update documented specification to reflect the existing implementation (v1 API). **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4595 **Owner:** Evan Anderson ### Knative Eventing 1.0 Ready Make the current feature set of Eventing ready for a 1.0 release. **GitHub Issue** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/5039 **Owner:** Ahmed Abdalla ### Better Trigger Filtering Trigger filtering today is limited. We need more expressive filtering. **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/3359 **Owner:** Ahmed Abdalla ## Next 6 Months (Midterm) _Currently the Working Group is focused on v1.0 and conformance which left no room to breath and plan for longer period_ ## Icebox (Wishlist) ### Event Discovery Event discovery have been a needed feature with many attempts to implement it. There's a need that users can discover various existing eventing components. One attempt to solve it was via the event registry and EventType CRD #929. The new Discovery API offers a more promising approach. We need a more unified story for discovery in eventing that potentially leverages the Discovery API and aligns the event registry and EventType features accordingly. **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4892 **Owner:** Matthis Wessendorf ### Cross Namespace Eventing [Description TBD] **GitHub Issue:** TBD **Owner:** Grant Rodgers ### Streaming Processing The goal of this proposal is to build an efficient event mesh that allows stateless and stateful even processing. We want to empower end users to describe event flows, made by streams and processors. **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4901 **Owner:** Lionel Villard ### Protocol negotiation contract Defined a standard that senders and receivers could use to communicate or negotiate protocol versions and features for a request, or a connection session to advance our capabilities, without leaving existing containers behind. **Theme:** Multiple protocol and protocol option support **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4868 **Owner:** Grant Rodgers ### Preflight protocol negotiation [Description TBD] **Theme:** Multiple protocol and protocol option support **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4868 **Owner:** Grant Rodgers ### Autotrigger Sugar Controller Simplify operations for developers using Knative by allowing addressable resources to have autotrigger sugar labels. AutoTrigger creates triggers based on annotations on a resource, and then assigns owner references between the Trigger and Addressable, allowing cleanup and a lot less operational complexity with the developer thinking about fewer resources **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4547 **Owner:** Scott Nichols ### HTTP/2 Support HTTP/2 in eventing components supports transparently with possibly little/zero configuration in the full event flow **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/3312 ## Won’t Do _These are the issues the working group decided to not work on whether for being out of the WG scope or some other reason_ # Eventing Sources ## Next 3 Months (Short-term) ### GitHub Vanity domain support The MT githubsource controller generates webhook of the form `http://githubsource-adapter.knative-sources.<domain>/<ns>/<name>` where `ns` and `name` corresponds the githubsource CR. Instead it should generate webhook of the form `http://<name>.<ns>.<domain>.` **Theme:** Multi-Tenant environment support **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-github/issues/65 **Owner:** Lionel Villard ### v1 for Core Sources Let's promote PingSource to v1 **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/4865 **Owner:** Lionel Villard ## Next 6 Months (Midterm) ### Multi-Tenant RedisStream Source Introduce a multi-tenant Redis implementation capable of handling more than one source instance at a time, typically all source instances in a namespace or all source instances in a cluster **Theme:** Multi-Tenant environment support **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-redis/issues/95 **Owner:** Lionel Villard ## Icebox _Wishlist items that are part of the working group scope but have no one to work on_ ## Won’t Do _These are the issues the working group decided to not work on whether for being out of the WG scope or some other reason_ # Eventing Kafka ## Next 3 Months (Short-term) ### v1 for Kafka Sources Let's promote KafkaSource to v1 **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-kafka/issues/389 **Owner:** Matthis Wessendorf (TBD) ### Multi-Tenant Kafka Source Introduce a multi-tenant KafkaSource implementation capable of handling more than one source instance at a time, typically all source instances in a namespace or all source instances in a cluster. The goal of multi-tenant receive adapters is to minimize the cost of running sources that are barely (i.e. no or few processed events) used at a particular point in time. **Theme:** Multi-Tenant environment support **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-kafka/issues/219 **Owner:** Lionel Villard ### Kafka Code Share Improvements KafkaChannel code refactorings to increase code sharing between the two implementations **Theme:** Kafka Code Share Improvements **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-kafka/issues/386 **Owner:** Matthis Wessendorf (TBD) ### KafkaSource Tenant Targeted Logging Hosting Knative as a multi-tenant cloud offering, there is currently no means to distinguish logging events that are necessary for servicing the hosted Knative service and those that may be meaningful to a tenant consuming the service. The tenant of the hosted service would like to see besides their hosted application logging, pertinent log messages from Knative service to help diagnose their issues. However, providing all logging messages from the Knative service internals would be counterproductive for a tenant not familiar with Knative internals **Theme:** Multi-Tenant environment support **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative/eventing/issues/3299 **Owner:** Rick Rineholt ## Next 6 Months (Midterm) ### KafkaChannel Unification Desired exit goal: One backing implemetation for the `KafkaChannel` API. **Theme:** Kafka Code Share Improvements **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-kafka/issues/386 **Owner:** Matthis Wessendorf (TBD) ### Various QoS guarantees for Kakfa Today only at-least-once and ordered is supported by the Kafka-backed channel implementation. At-most-once and unordered should also be supported. **GitHub Issue:** https://github.com/knative-sandbox/eventing-kafka/issues/413 **Owner:** Lionel Villard ### Docs Review and Polishing Docs for Kafka compontens need to be reviewed, polished and refactored to give a seamless experience to Knative Eventing users looking for how to use Kafka based eventing compontens. **GitHub Issue** TBD ## Icebox _Wishlist items that are part of the working group scope but have no one to work on_ ## Won’t Do _These are the issues the working group decided to not work on whether for being out of the WG scope or some other reason_
