NEERAJ VAIDYA commented on KAFKA-12776:
---------------------------------------
Thanks Sophie.
I did try with max inflight requests set to 1 but still see this sequencing
issue for messages with the same key. I always thought that if the key is same
then the messages should be ordered within the batch. Regardless of whether the
send is blocked while the cluster is unavailable.
Are you able to share some info on why messages get reordered within a batch ?
Mine is a telecom events use case and I need guaranteed ordering even when
messages are being retried.

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: producer
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 2.7.0

> I have an Apache Kafka 2.6 Producer which writes to topic-A (TA).
> My application is basically a Spring boot web-application which accepts JSON
> payloads via HTTP and then pushes each to a Kafka topic. I also use Spring
> Cloud Stream Kafka in the application to create and use a Producer.
> For one of my failure handling test cases, I shutdown the Kafka cluster while
> my applications are running. (Note : No messages have been published to the
> Kafka cluster before I stop the cluster)
> When the producer application tries to write messages to TA, it cannot
> because the cluster is down and hence (I assume) buffers the messages. Let's
> say it receives 4 messages m1,m2,m3,m4 in increasing time order. (i.e. m1 is
> first and m4 is last).
> When I bring the Kafka cluster back online, the producer sends the buffered
> messages to the topic, but they are not in order. I receive for example, m2
> then m3 then m1 and then m4.
> Why is that ? Is it because the buffering in the producer is multi-threaded
> with each producing to the topic at the same time ?
> My project code is attached herewith.
> I can confirm that I have enabled idempotence. I have also tried with
> ```max.in.flight.requests=1```
