Re: Query regarding Kafka publishing

Serialization does happen before partitioning. There is no particular reason for this in the old producer since serialization and partitioning are independent. In the new producer, partitioning is based on hash of the serialized key. So partitioning has to be done after the serialization. Thanks,
