Hi there, As far as I understood, Flink Kafka Connectors don’t use the consumer group management feature from Kafka. Here the post I got the info from: http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/Flink-kafka-group-question-td8185.html#none <http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/Flink-kafka-group-question-td8185.html#none>
For some reasons we cannot set up a flink-cluster environment, but we still need to assure high availability. e.g. in case one node goes down the second should still keep on running. My question: - Is there any chance to run 2 different flink (standalone) apps consuming messages from a single kafka-topic only once? This is what I could do by using 2 native Kafka-Consumers within the same consumer-group. Many thanks in advance Valentin
