Elias Levy commented on FLINK-11435:
------------------------------------

This is expected behavior.  Flink manages Kafka offsets itself.  Offsets are 
only reported to Kafka via the consumer group id to allow tracking progress by 
tools in Kafka ecosystem.

> Different jobs same consumer group are treated as separate groups

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Kafka Connector
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.1
>         Environment: kafka consumer
>            Reporter: Avi Levi
>            Priority: Major
>
> deploying two jobs with the same consumer group id, still treated as 
> different consumer groups. This behavior does not comply with kafka 
> expectations. Same consumer group ids should be treated as the same group 
> this will enable deploying more jobs (specially if they are stateless ) on 
> demand and it also how normal consumer groups behave. 
> reproduce :
> deploy the same job twice - both jobs consumes the same message although they 
> share the same consumer id
