KIP-392: Allow consumers to fetch from closest replica

Open Pryz opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Describe the solution you would like

In version 2.4.0, Kafka introduced the ability for consumers to fetch data from a replica instead of a partition leader. While we already support the ability to consume data from a leader in the same AZ, leaders might move due to diverse Kafka events. KIP-392, while potentially introducing some latency, helps managing the data flow.

@rhansen2 do you mind if I take a stab at this? Our team was looking to utilize this feature soon.
