Producer Part 3 - Safe Producer

The video tutorial explains how to configure a safe Kafka producer, focusing on different settings for versions below and above 0.11. It covers key configurations like 'acks', 'min.insync.replicas', and 'retries', and discusses the impact of these settings on performance. The tutorial also includes a hands-on section demonstrating how to implement these configurations in code, ensuring idempotence and maintaining message ordering.

What setting should be used for 'acks' in Kafka versions less than 0.11 to ensure all replicas acknowledge a write?

• acks=all

• acks=none

• acks=0

• acks=1

For Kafka versions less than 0.11, what is the recommended setting for 'min.insync.replicas'?

• 3

• 4

• 2

• 1

In Kafka versions greater than 0.11, which setting should be enabled to ensure idempotence?

• acks=1

• enable.idempotence=true

• acks=0

• enable.idempotence=false

What is a potential impact of running a safe producer in Kafka?

• Impact on throughput and latency

• Increased throughput

• Decreased latency

• No impact on performance

Why is it important to test the performance of a safe producer before going to production?

• To reduce the number of retries

• To change the producer code

• To ensure it meets the desired performance

• To increase the number of brokers

What is the default value for 'max.inflight.requests.per.connection' when strict ordering is not required?

• 1

• 3

• 10

• 5

Which configuration change can alter the behavior of a Kafka producer without changing the code?

• Changing the broker version

• Adjusting producer configurations

• Altering the consumer group

• Modifying the topic name
