Topic Settings

This page describes how to use Lenses topic settings to provide governance when creating topics in your Kafka cluster.

Topic settings and naming rules allow for the enforcement of best practices when onboarding new teams and topics into your data platform.

Topic configuration rules

Topic configuration rules can be used to enforce partition sizing, replication, and retention configuration during topic creation. Go to Admin->Topic Settings->Edit.

Naming conventions

By setting naming conventions you can control how topics are named. To define a naming convention, go to Admin->Topic Settings->Edit. Naming rules allow you to select from predefined regex or apply your own.
