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 configuration should be used for Kafka versions less than 0.11 to ensure all replicas acknowledge a write?

Explain the significance of setting 'min.insync.replicas' to 2 in Kafka.

What is the recommended value for 'max.inflight.requests.per.connection' if strict ordering is required?

How does enabling 'idempotent' settings affect the producer's performance?

What should be tested to ensure the producer is performing as expected before going to production?

Describe the process of creating a safe producer in Kafka.

What are the key properties that need to be set for a Kafka producer to be idempotent?
