Hi, I have a question about scaling the broker count of a Kafka cluster. We have a scenario where we'll have two clusters replicating data into a third. We're wondering how we should size that third cluster so that it can handle the volume of messages from the two source clusters. Should we just make the number of brokers match? e.g. five brokers in the two source clusters, therefore 10 in the destination cluster. In general, what is the horizontal scaling model we should use? Also, is there an upper limit to the number of brokers you should put in a cluster, after which you get diminishing returns on throughput?
Thanks, Scott Arthur
