Dawn of Kafka DevOps: Managing and Evolving Schemas with Control Center | Confluent

This post introduces the integration of Confluent Control Center with Confluent Schema Registry for managing and evolving schemas. It highlights how Control Center allows users to view schemas, edit them, check compatibility against previous versions, and set compatibility policies. The post uses an example of a Java producer with an Avro schema to demonstrate schema registration and deserialization in Control Center. It also explains the importance of schema evolution and compatibility checks, illustrating how Control Center rejects incompatible schema changes and allows for schema version comparison.
