What changed?
Replaced bitnamilegacy/kafka:3.7 with soldevelo/kafka:3.7 in the Docker configuration. The Soldevelo image is a fully compatible, actively maintained fork.
https://hub.docker.com/r/soldevelo/kafka/
https://github.com/SolDevelo/containers

Why?
The Bitnami legacy Kafka image is outdated and no longer maintained. Soldevelo provides a drop-in replacement that remains open-source, actively supported, and avoids the limitations of the legacy image. This follows the earlier note that Bitnami Legacy was only a temporary workaround until an open-source alternative was selected.

How did you test it?
Tested locally via Docker Compose to confirm compatibility with the previous Bitnami image.

Potential risks
No risks expected. The Kafka version remains the same and the image is a drop-in replacement.

Release notes
No updates required.

Documentation Changes
None required; configuration remains unchanged.
