Apache Pinot + Azure Event Hub Integration: Metadata Fetch Timeout Hey team, I’m integrating Apache Pinot (Dockerized) with Azure Event Hub (Kafka-compatible endpoint) for real-time ingestion. The connection works perfectly from a standalone Python Kafka client using confluent_kafka, but Pinot fails with: org.apache.kafka.common.errors.TimeoutException: Timeout expired while fetching topic metadata ✅ Confirmed Working: Pinot Server can curl and TLS handshake with icpeventhubns.servicebus.windows.net:9093 Python consumer successfully consumes data from ICPtrafficdataeventhub topic Using correct sasl.jaas.config format with $ConnectionString and EntityPath streamConfigs use stream.kafka.consumer.prop.* correctly ❌ Still Seeing: Pinot throws a metadata fetch timeout when creating the real-time table, even though connectivity and credentials are confirmed.

@Nithinjith Pushpakaran: This might be more appropriate for #C011C9JHN7R, as pinot-dev is more about Github issues, pull requests, etc.
