Hello, In the new api 1.0.0 for building KTable, it is written that No internal changelod topic is created.
public <K,V> KTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KTable.html><K,V> table(java.lang.String topic) Create a KTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KTable.html> for the specified topic. The default "auto.offset.reset" strategy and default key and value deserializers as specified in the config <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/StreamsConfig.html> are used. Input records <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/KeyValue.html> with null key will be dropped. Note that the specified input topics must be partitioned by key. If this is not the case the returned KTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KTable.html> will be corrupted. The resulting KTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KTable.html> will be materialized in a local KeyValueStore <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/state/KeyValueStore.html> with an internal store name. Note that that store name may not be queriable through Interactive Queries. *No internal changelog topic is created since the original input topic can be used for recovery (cf. methods of KGroupedStream <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KGroupedStream.html> and KGroupedTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KGroupedTable.html> that return a KTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KTable.html>).* Parameters:topic - the topic name; cannot be nullReturns:a KTable <https://kafka.apache.org/10/javadoc/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/KTable.html> for the specified topic My code is as followed :KTable<K, V> table = builder.table("my_topic"); When I look at the created topics I can see an internal topic "application_id-my_topicSTATE-STORE-0000000002-changelog". Do I missed something ? Thanks, Cédric
