June 2025 Monthly Summary: Implemented cluster name normalization for MirrorMaker configurations in Netcracker/qubership-kafka, standardizing cluster names to lowercase to ensure consistent targetClusterNames when RegionName is present. This targeted bug fix reduces configuration drift, prevents misrouting in cross-region replication, and improves overall reliability of the Kafka mirroring setup. The change is tracked under PSUPCLCAP-430 and committed as 0552151c2be9d79172020847382e42cdbee9a771.
