A Kafka administrator notices that their consumers of Topic X are starting to fall behind. The administrator sees that Topic X has four partitions, and the consumer group has two consumers.
Which change can increase the performance of the Consumer Group?

  • A. Increase the partitions in Topic X.
  • B. Create a new consumer group for Topic X containing two (2) consumers.
  • C. Decrease the consumer acknowledgment property to increase throughput.
  • D. Increase the number of consumers in the consumer group.


Answer : D

You have an existing topic t1 that you want to delete because there are no more producers writing to it or consumers reading from it.
What is the recommended way to delete the topic?

  • A. If topic deletion is enabled on the brokers, delete the topic using Kafka command line tools.
  • B. The consumer should send a message with a ’null’ key.
  • C. Delete the log files and their corresponding index files from the leader broker.
  • D. Delete the offsets for that topic from the consumer offsets topic.


Answer : A

In certain scenarios, it is necessary to weigh the trade-off between latency and throughput. One method to increase throughput is to configure batching of messages.
In addition to batch.size, what other producer property can be used to accomplish this?

  • A. send.buffer.bytes
  • B. linger.ms
  • C. compression
  • D. delivery.timeout.ms


Answer : B

Your organization has a mission-critical Kafka cluster that must be highly available. A Disaster Recovery (DR) cluster has been set up using Replicator, and data is continuously being replicated from source cluster to the DR cluster. However, you notice that the message on offset 1002 on source cluster does not seem to match with offset 1002 on the destination DR cluster.
Which statement is correct?

  • A. The DR cluster is lagging behind updates; once the DR cluster catches up, the messages will match.
  • B. The message on DR cluster got over-written accidently by another application.
  • C. The offsets for the messages on the source, destination cluster may not match.
  • D. The message was updated on source cluster, but the update did not flow into destination DR cluster and errored.


Answer : C

You are managing a cluster with a large number of topics, and each topic has a lot of partitions. A team wants to significantly increase the number of partitions for some topics.
Which parameters should you check before increasing the partitions?

  • A. Check the producer batch size and buffer size.
  • B. Check if compression is being used.
  • C. Check the max open file count on brokers.
  • D. Check if acks=all is being used.


Answer : C

How can authentication for both internal component traffic and external client traffic be accomplished?

  • A. Configure multiple brokers.
  • B. Configure multiple listeners on the broker.
  • C. Configure multiple security protocols on the same listener.
  • D. Configure LoadBalancer.


Answer : B

You have a Kafka cluster with topics t1 and t2. In the output below, topic t2 shows Partition 1 with a leader “-1”.
What is the most likely reason for this?
...
$ kafka-topics --zookeeper localhost:2181 --describe --topic t1

Topic: t1 Partition: 0 Leader: 0 Replicas: 0 Isr: 0
$ kafka-topics --zookeeper localhost:2181 --describe --topic t2

Topic: t2 Partition: 0 Leader: 0 Replicas: 0 Isr: 0
Topic: t2 Partition: 1 Leader: -1 Replicas: 1 Isr:

  • A. Broker 1 failed.
  • B. Leader shows “-1” while the log cleaner thread runs on Broker 1.
  • C. Compression has been enabled on Broker 1.
  • D. Broker 1 has another partition clashing with the same name.

Answer : B

A company has an existing Kafka cluster running without SSL/TLS enabled. The customer wants to enable SSL on brokers to secure data in transit, but they would like to give applications connecting to this cluster some time to migrate to using SSL connection instead of putting a hard stop.
Which solution will meet the customer's requirements?

  • A. Enable SSL on the current Listener, and do not enable mTLS.
  • B. Modify the advertised listeners setting on brokers to use SSL.
  • C. Create a new listener with SSL enabled.
  • D. Enable SSL on the current listener, and do not implement SSL on application side.


Answer : C

Kafka Connect is running on a two node cluster in distributed mode. The connector is a source connector that pulls data from Postgres tables (users/payment/orders), writes to topics with two partitions, and with replication factor two. The development team notices that the data is lagging behind.
What should be done to reduce the data lag*?
The Connector definition is listed below:
{
"name": "confluent-postgresql-source",
"connector class": "PostgresSource",
"topic.prefix": "postgresql_",
& nbsp;& nbsp;& nbsp;…
"db.name": "postgres",
"table.whitelist": "users.payment.orders”,
"timestamp.column.name": "created_at",
"output.data format": "JSON",
"db.timezone": "UTC",
"tasks.max": "1"
}

  • A. Increase the number of Connect Nodes.
  • B. Increase the number of Connect Tasks (tasks max value).
  • C. Increase the number of partitions.
  • D. Increase the replication factor and increase the number of Connect Tasks.
