             Summary: Increase the number of consumers in the share consumer 
group
                 Key: KAFKA-21241
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-21241
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Prakhar Kulshrestha


Currently the max  number of consumers in a share consumer group is default to 
200 and max to 1000.  In bigger platforms where batch processing along with 
slow consumer use cases limiting to just 1000 consumer is very 
restrictive.{*}{*}

One of the scenario is a batch processing of millions of records and having to 
parallel process 20-30k records in parallel using spring kafka concurrency 
feature would mean we would need at least 20-30k consumers in a consumer groups 
with around 1k pods. Current 1000 limit just let it have ~60pods.

Request this to be reevaluated and increase the number of consumers that a 
share group can have.
