zschwein opened a new issue, #11468: URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/11468
### Proposed Change Currently the kafka connect iceberg sink will retry failed commits to a table forever, using the control topic offsets stored in table iceberg snapshot properties. This request is for a configuration option that would fail a connector tasks after a configured amount of commit cycles fails for a given set of file offsets stored in the control topic. The feature would allow for long attempted commit/commit failure issues to be propagated up to the kafka connect sink task level/connector health/status. A property named something like `commit-failure-cycles-threshold`. This would allow for long attempted commit/commit failure issues to be propagated up to the kafka connect sink task level/connector health/status. ### Proposal document _No response_ ### Specifications - [ ] Table - [ ] View - [ ] REST - [ ] Puffin - [ ] Encryption - [ ] Other -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
