Is Compression happening on Producer Side (on application thread meaning thread that call send method or background Kafka thread ) and where does decompression Consumer side ?
Application thread in both cases. Is there any Compression/Decompression happening on Brokers Side when receiving message from producer and sending message to consumers ? Yes, before appending to the broker's log, to assign offsets to compressed messages.
