Hi, I am pretty new to kafka and want to understand how the quota system works for kafka.
Till now I have been following the document here <https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/> I have been able to set the quotas (produce and consume) for new clients using the following command bin/kafka-configs.sh --zookeeper 10.11.10.2:2181 --alter --add-config 'producer_byte_rate=1024,consumer_byte_rate=1024' --entity-type clients --entity-name clientA I am also using the following command to measure the throughput of Kafka topics bin/kafka-producer-perf-test.sh --topic topic1 --num-records 100000 --record-size 100000 --throughput 500000 --producer-props acks=0 bootstrap.servers=10.11.10.2:9092 Now I am not sure how to assign a client-id for a particular producer. Basically I want to run the kafka-producer-perf-test with a particular client id. Is it possible to do this. Also what is the difference between the user-quota and client-quota? Can I assign user-id to a particular producer? Thanks, Archie
