Kafka Consumers in a Group

The video tutorial explains how Kafka consumer groups work, including setting up a consumer group, demonstrating message distribution among consumers, handling consumer failures, and reading messages from the beginning with a new group. It provides a live demonstration of these concepts, showing how messages are split among consumers and how the system rebalances when a consumer fails.
