Hi All, I am having these below understanding regarding Kafka connect.
1. Kafka Connect Standalone has the provision of either running the job from the command line or we can use the REST interface also to add/update/delete a connector job. 2. Standalone mode won't be running like a clustered environment like it won't be sharing the load if more than one instance is running. Each Instance will be responsible for it's own configured connector job and load sharing won't happen. 3. Distributed mode will share the load among the instances and will provide fault tolerance, dynamic scaling, etc. 4. Distribute mode only provides the connector job configuration through the REST interface. There is no other option like reading the connector job config from the property file or reading it from JDBC etc. Please confirm, if the above understanding is correct. -- Regards, Himanshu Shukla
