I will try to partially answer your queries:

1. how to know the kafka version of each HDP version?

The "Release Notes" section of the Individual HDP doc contains the "Component Version" information that it ships and supports.

Example:
https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP3/HDP-3.1.0/release-notes/content/comp_versions.html
https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.5/bk_release-notes/content/comp_versions.html

.

@dear Jay in the document ( https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP3/HDP-3.1.0/release-notes/content/comp_versions.html ) I see the kafka version - Apache Kafka 2.0.0 , is it the same version of confluent 2.0.0 ?
