There is a problem when producing Kafka topics that hosted the latest version of Kafka

[inspector44]

As far as I see the data-sender project uses the 2.3.1 version of kafka-node. That means it's using the old version of Kafka Client.
Since it uses an old version of Kafka Client, It can't produce the latest Kafka topics. So, you need to upgrade the kafka-node version.
If we think the same, I can send a pull request for this problem.
Thanks.
