Kafka Connect TimezoneConverter (Debezium) SMT Usage Reference for Confluent Platform

The TimezoneConverter (io.debezium.transforms.TimezoneConverter) single message transform (SMT) converts timestamp fields in Debezium change event records to a specific timezone. Use this SMT to normalize data across multiple regions into a consistent timezone (for example, UTC). For complete details, see the official Debezium TimezoneConverter SMT documentation.

Limitations

  • The TimezoneConverter SMT is only available for Oracle XStream CDC Source and managed Debezium connectors on Confluent Platform.

Predicates

Configure transformations with predicates to ensure they only process records satisfying a particular condition. You can also use predicates in a transformation chain along with the Kafka Connect Filter (Kafka) SMT Usage Reference for Confluent Platform to conditionally filter specific records. For more information, refer to Predicates.
