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

The TimezoneConverter SMT (io.debezium.transforms.TimezoneConverter) 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 such as UTC. For complete details, see the official Debezium TimezoneConverter SMT documentation. To convert the format of a timestamp field, see Kafka Connect TimestampConverter SMT Usage Reference for Confluent Platform.

Limitations

The TimezoneConverter SMT is only available for Oracle XStream change data capture (CDC) Source and managed Debezium connectors on Confluent Platform.

Predicates

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