Broker Configurations

This topic provides configuration parameters available for Confluent Platform. The parameters are organized by order of importance, ranked from high to low.

  • confluent.license

    Specifies the Confluent license. Confluent Platform includes a commercial component named confluent-server. This includes a Kafka broker with support for commercial features, Kafka Java client, Kafka Streams, and Kafka Connect. This also includes proprietary plugins for security features including Confluent LDAP Authorizer and Authorization using Role-Based Access Control. For more information, see the available packages.

    Type:string
    Default:
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:read-only

  • zookeeper.connect

    Specifies the ZooKeeper connection string in the form hostname:port where host and port are the host and port of a ZooKeeper server. To allow connecting through other ZooKeeper nodes when that ZooKeeper machine is down you can also specify multiple hosts in the form hostname1:port1,hostname2:port2,hostname3:port3.
    The server can also have a ZooKeeper chroot path as part of its ZooKeeper connection string which puts its data under some path in the global ZooKeeper namespace. For example to give a chroot path of /chroot/path you would give the connection string as hostname1:port1,hostname2:port2,hostname3:port3/chroot/path.

    Type:string
    Default:
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:read-only

  • advertised.host.name

    DEPRECATED: only used when advertised.listeners or listeners are not set. Use advertised.listeners instead.
    Hostname to publish to ZooKeeper for clients to use. In IaaS environments, this may need to be different from the interface to which the broker binds. If this is not set, it will use the value for host.name if configured. Otherwise it will use the value returned from java.net.InetAddress.getCanonicalHostName().

    Type:string
    Default:null
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:read-only

  • advertised.listeners

    Listeners to publish to ZooKeeper for clients to use, if different than the listeners config property. In IaaS environments, this may need to be different from the interface to which the broker binds. If this is not set, the value for listeners will be used. Unlike listeners it is not valid to advertise the 0.0.0.0 meta-address.

    Type:string
    Default:null

    Update Mode:per-broker

  • advertised.port

    DEPRECATED: only used when advertised.listeners or listeners are not set. Use advertised.listeners instead.
    The port to publish to ZooKeeper for clients to use. In IaaS environments, this may need to be different from the port to which the broker binds. If this is not set, it will publish the same port that the broker binds to.

If the leader imbalance exceeds `leader.imbalance.per.broker.percentage`, leader rebalance to the preferred leader for partitions is triggered.

    Type:int
    Default:-1
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:read-only

  • compression.type

    Specify the final compression type for a given topic. This configuration accepts the standard compression codecs ('gzip', 'snappy', 'lz4', 'zstd'). It additionally accepts 'uncompressed' which is equivalent to no compression; and 'producer' which means retain the original compression codec set by the producer.

    Type:string
    Default:producer
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:cluster-wide

  • confluent.tier.local.hotset.bytes

    For a topic with tiering enabled, this configuration controls the maximum size a partition (which consists of log segments) can grow to on broker-local storage before we will discard old log segments to free up space. Log segments retained on broker-local storage is referred as the "hotset". Segments discarded from local store could continue to exist in tiered storage and remain available for fetches depending on retention configurations. By default there is no size limit only a time limit. Since this limit is enforced at the partition level, multiply it by the number of partitions to compute the topic hotset in bytes.

    Type:long
    Default:-1
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:cluster-wide

  • confluent.tier.local.hotset.ms

    For a topic with tiering enabled, this configuration controls the maximum time we will retain a log segment on broker-local storage before we will discard it to free up space. Segments discarded from local store could continue to exist in tiered storage and remain available for fetches depending on retention configurations. If set to -1, no time limit is applied.

    Type:string
    Default:null
    Valid Values:
    Importance:high
    Update Mode:read-only

  • control.plane.listener.name

    Name of listener used for communication between controller and brokers. Broker will use the control.plane.listener.name to locate the endpoint in listeners list, to listen for connections from the controller. For example, if a broker's config is :
    listeners = INTERNAL://192.1.1.8:9092, EXTERNAL://10.1.1.5:9093, CONTROLLER://192.1.1.8:9094
    listener.security.protocol.map = INTERNAL:PLAINTEXT, EXTERNAL:SSL, CONTROLLER:SSL
    control.plane.listener.name = CONTROLLER
    On startup, the broker will start listening on "192.1.1.8:9094" with security protocol "SSL".
    On controller side, when it discovers a broker's published endpoints through zookeeper, it will use the control.plane.listener.name to find the endpoint, which it will use to establish connection to the broker.
    For example, if the broker's published endpoints on zookeeper are :
    "endpoints" : ["INTERNAL://broker1.example.com:9092","EXTERNAL://broker1.example.com:9093","CONTROLLER://broker1.example.com:9094"]
    and the controller's config is :
    listener.security.protocol.map = INTERNAL:PLAINTEXT, EXTERNAL:SSL, CONTROLLER:SSL
    control.plane.listener.name = CONTROLLER
    then controller will use "broker1.example.com:9094" with security protocol "SSL" to connect to the broker.
    If not explicitly configured, the default value will be null and there will be no dedicated endpoints for controller connections.

  • min.insync.replicas

    When a producer sets acks to "all" (or "-1"), min.insync.replicas specifies the minimum number of replicas that must acknowledge a write for the write to be considered successful. If this minimum cannot be met, then the producer will raise an exception (either NotEnoughReplicas or NotEnoughReplicasAfterAppend).
    When used together, min.insync.replicas and acks allow you to enforce greater durability guarantees. A typical scenario would be to create a topic with a replication factor of 3, set min.insync.replicas to 2, and produce with acks of "all". This will ensure that the producer raises an exception if a majority of replicas do not receive a write.

As shown, key and value are separated by a colon and map entries are separated by commas. Each listener name should only appear once in the map. Different security (SSL and SASL) settings can be configured for each listener by adding a normalised prefix (the listener name is lowercased) to the config name. For example, to set a different keystore for the INTERNAL listener, a config with name listener.name.internal.ssl.keystore.location would be set. If the config for the listener name is not set, the config will fallback to the generic config (i.e. ssl.keystore.location).
