Hi, I’m new. We are considering using Kafka for our next generation product. We have 300K devices that are connected to our cloud backend. We are currently using a set of web services for our headless client devices to send state information. We are moving to a message-based interface.
Does Kafka support a use case of many thousands of client/producers? I can’t seem to find anyone using Kafka in this way. It appears most user have the small number of producers inside the data center. It also seems the producers need to know a lot of state information about the Kafka cluster. Why should a client have to be involved selecting the right partition for a given topic? Or maybe I am total confused on how to correctly design for Kafka. Any help / guidance is appreciated. ---- Sent using GuerrillMail.com Block or report abuse: https://www.guerrillamail.com/abuse/?a=VFJxFx4gSLUTgw%2F68W4ecRzCA8WC1Q%3D%3D
