I have created a topic and I'm not using it, but now I want to use it for another application. so instead of creating new one I want to rename and use it. is it possible?
Renaming a topic is not a supported operation. However, the latest Kafka versions now support topic deletion. So you can simply delete the old topic, and create a new one with the new name. If you had data you want to save, you can also use mirrormaker to copy data from the old topic to the new one.
The names of Kafka topics are case sensitive.
In straight and simple there is no concept of renaming topics in kafka
