My understanding of store changelog is that, each task writes store changes to a particular changelog partition for that task. (Does that mean the changelog keys are task names?)
One thing that confuses me is that, the last offsets of some changelog partitions do not move. I'm using the kafka GetOffsetShell tool to get the last offsets for each partition. The result looks like this: partition offset 0 7090 1 3737937 2 3733222 3 3719065 4 3730208 5 3731128 6 3734669 7 3691461 8 3759133 9 7286 10 3690347 11 3722450 12 7376 13 3738454 14 3742316 15 3710512 16 3777267 17 3750596 18 3728185 19 3694470 As you can see, three of the partitions barely got any updates. In fact, the offsets stopped moving for a while. The traffic for each task should be fairly balanced. I checked the task log and made sure that the stores for these partitions are actively updated. Any idea why this is happening? Or am I missing something? Thanks, David
