2. Remove old confluent containers

   docker compose rm -fsv kafka kafka-ui zookeeper
   docker volume rm -f trader_kafka_data trader_zoo-data trader_zoo-datalog trader_zookeeper_data trader_zookeeper_datalog 
   

3. Remove kafka from COMPOSE_PROFILES and add redpanda

   # set this in your .env
   COMPOSE_PROFILES="redpanda"
   # check that the redpanda compose is included in your .env
   COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose.yaml:docker-compose-kafka.yaml:docker-compose-redpanda.yaml
