Replace Bitnami Kafka images with official Apache Kafka images #17686
Description
Task Description
What needs to be done:
Replace all existing Bitnami Kafka and ZooKeeper image references with the official apache/kafka distribution. This includes updating docker-compose.yml files, environment variable mappings (transitioning to KRaft where applicable), and any associated health check scripts.
Why this task is needed:
The currently used Bitnami images are no longer accessible or supported in our registry, creating a blocker for deployment. Adopting the official Apache images ensures better alignment with the core project’s lifecycle and improves the maintainability of our infrastructure.
