# Apache Kafka: schema registry and Avro compatibility

## When to use

Use this skill for schema registry and Avro compatibility in Apache Kafka. This skill
specifically handles schema registry and Avro compatibility and nothing else in the
Apache Kafka family.

## Procedure

Register Avro/Protobuf schemas, set compatibility mode (BACKWARD/FORWARD/FULL), and evolve schemas without breaking existing consumers.

## Notes

This is the Apache Kafka skill dedicated to schema registry and Avro compatibility.
Sibling skills cover other Apache Kafka capabilities; this one
is the right choice only when the task is about schema registry and Avro compatibility.
