Thanks for response Gerrit and Guozhang !! Hi Gerrit,
I am trying to use same round robin partitioner shared by you but hard luck, still round robin partitioning not working. I have successfully registered RoundRobinPartitioner in kafka producer. Code of RoundRobinPartitioner class as: public RoundRobinPartitioner(VerifiableProperties props){ log.info("Using Round Robin Partitioner class..."); } @Override public int partition(String key, int partitions) { log.info("Inside partition method"); int i = counter.getAndIncrement(); if(i == Integer.MAX_VALUE){ counter.set(0); return 0; }else return i % partitions; } When i produce the data, first log message "Using Round Robin Partitioner class..." is printed and second message "Inside partition method" is not printed. >From that we can ensure that RoundRobinPartitioner has been successfully registered but logic of round robin is not getting called. Any help to resolve what i am missing ? Thanks in advance !!
