Confluent Cloud Managed Connectors

[Jason Vo]

Hey Debezium team,

I am trying to use Confluent Cloud as a managed Kafka provider and I see they have the available fully managed Debezium source connectors for the following databases:

- SQL Server https://www.confluent.io/hub/debezium/debezium-connector-sqlserver

- MySQL https://www.confluent.io/hub/debezium/debezium-connector-mysql

- Postgres https://www.confluent.io/hub/debezium/debezium-connector-postgresql

The issue I am facing is we want to run Debezium version 2.3.4.Final and the plugins above are using version 2.2.1. 

I was wondering have other people run into issues running different versions and how if yes how did they get it working on Confluent Cloud? 

I expect to upload the updated version of Debezium as a Custom Connector https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/connectors/bring-your-connector/overview.html. But wanted to see if anybody else has an alternative solution
