Thanks for the update. > Could the backpressure timeout and heartbeat timeout be because of Heap Usage close to Max configured?
Could be. This is one of the things I had in mind under overloaded in: > might be related to one another via some different deeper problem (broken network environment, something being overloaded) You can easily diagnose it. Just attach a memory profiler or check gc logs, just as you would normally do when debugging a non-Flink standalone Java application. It can also be a symptom of a failing network environment. I would first check for GC pauses/stops/gaps in the logs that would indicate stalled JVM caused those RPC timeouts. If that doesn't bring you closer to a solution I would then check for the network environment in your cluster/cloud. Both of those might be a reason behind your Kafka issues. Hard to tell. Definitely you shouldn't have heartbeat timeouts in your cluster, so something IS wrong with your setup.
