Hi Joel,
“unless you have a good reason to load balance and manage offsets manually”
In general one consumer connector consumes more than one partition.
In client side, we want to get all partitions offset for any message, if

There are several clients available listed on the project wiki. Node.js
is among them

Since Kafka doesn't support the websockets or HTTP directly, you would
need a middle man to redirect events from the browser to a Kafka
Thanks Jun and Joel. I've got my Kafka development instance up and running. I
do have a few questions through:
1. In /bin I note that there is kafka-server-stop.sh and
zookeeper-server-stop.sh. I assume the scripts should be executed in this order
for a clean shutdown?
2. Clearly absent are shu
During my due diligence to assess use of Kafka for both our activity and log
message streams, I would like to ask the project committers and community users
about using Kafka with Node.js. Yes, I am aware that a Kafka client exists for
Node.js (https://github.com/marcuswestin/node-kafka), which
1. Yes.
2. Producer and consumer are libraries used in client services. So, the
client app needs to call the appropriate shutdown method in the producer
and consumer library.
Thanks,
Jun

Yes, if you want to be able to rewind to some offset, SimpleConsumer is the
right API for this purpose.

Thanks David. Yes, I am aware of the Prozess Node lib also. I forgot to include
it in my posting. Good catch!

Chris,
Not sure how stable those node.js clients are. In 0.8, we plan to provide a
native C version of the producer. A thin node.js layer can potentially be
built on top of that.
Thanks,

Keep in mind that this works only if you don't care about controlling per
partition rewind capability.
The high level consumer will not give you control over which par
In order to support rollbacks and checkpoints, there would have to be
a way to both supply partition offsets to the consumer before reading,
as well as retrieve partition offsets from them consumer once reading
is complete.

Correct.
Hi,
I have some questions about the batch size for producer.
How big should be the batch size?
What happens if producer client crashes before batch is full and messages were
still sitting in producer queue? Does it recover those messages when we
restart the producer?
Are these messages stored

In production at Linkedin, we use a batch size of 200, which has worked
pretty well.

Thanks Neha.
How can I shutdown the producer? is it ctrl-c?

Hi David,
I was looking into the listed node.js library. Prozess doesn't seem to use
zookeeper for connection.
Instead, I found one (mentioned below) which uses zookeeper based
connection in node.js .
https://npmjs.org/package/franz-kafka
https://github.com/dannycoates/franz-kafka
Are you aware
You can call the close() API on the producer
Thanks,
Neha
