Description

The org.apache.kafka.connect.transforms.MaskField SMT can use replacement for numeric and string type fields. it would be nice to optionally be able to masking with regular expression for string fields only. then it can mask the data partially.

 

Use cases : mask out the IP address just the last two parts. (ex. 123.45.67.89 -> 123.45.**.**)

 

Since this changes the API, and thus will require a KIP.
