Kafka Broker Configurations¶
This topic provides configuration parameters available for Confluent Platform. The Apache Kafka® broker configuration parameters are organized by order of importance, ranked from high to low.
For details on Kafka internals refer to this interactive diagram. To learn about running Kafka without ZooKeeper read this article on KRaft.
-
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 forlisteners
will be used. Unlikelisteners
, it is not valid to advertise the 0.0.0.0 meta-address.
Also unlikelisteners
, there can be duplicated ports in this property, so that one listener can be configured to advertise another listener's address. This can be useful in some cases where external load balancers are used.Type: string Default: null Valid Values: Importance: high Update Mode: per-broker -
auto.create.topics.enable
Enable auto creation of topic on the server
Type: boolean Default: true Valid Values: Importance: high Update Mode: cluster-wide -
auto.leader.rebalance.enable
Enables auto leader balancing. A background thread checks the distribution of partition leaders at regular intervals, configurable by `leader.imbalance.check.interval.seconds`. If the leader imbalance exceeds `leader.imbalance.per.broker.percentage`, leader rebalance to the preferred leader for partitions is triggered.

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 this is increased and there are consumers older than 0.10.2, the consumers' fetch size must also be increased so that they can fetch record batches this large. In the latest message format version, records are always grouped into batches for efficiency. In previous message format versions, uncompressed records are not grouped into batches and this limit only applies to a single record in that case.This can be set per topic with the topic level
max.message.bytes
config.Type: int Default: 1048588 Valid Values: [0,...] Importance: high Update Mode: cluster-wide -

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.Type: int Default: 1 Valid Values: [1,...] Importance: high Update Mode: cluster-wide -

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 formhostname1: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 ashostname1:port1,hostname2:port2,hostname3:port3/chroot/path

log.cleaner.delete.retention.ms
Controls how long delete records and transaction markers are retained after they are eligible for deletion. This is used to ensure that consumers which are concurrently reading the log have an opportunity to read these records before they are removed. For example, `read_committed` consumers rely on reading transaction markers in order to detect the boundaries of each transaction. By delaying deletion, it is unlikely for a consumer to read part of a transaction before the corresponding marker is removed. Note that when the value is 0, there will be no delay before these records are removed. This should be reserved for special situations which already protect against concurrent reads while cleaning is ongoing.

sasl.oauthbearer.jwks.endpoint.url
The OAuth/OIDC provider URL from which the provider's JWKS (JSON Web Key Set) can be retrieved. The URL can be HTTP(S)-based or file-based. If the URL is HTTP(S)-based, the JWKS data will be retrieved from the OAuth/OIDC provider via the configured URL on broker startup. All then-current keys will be cached on the broker for incoming requests. If an authentication request is received for a JWT that includes a "kid" header claim value that isn't yet in the cache, the JWKS endpoint will be queried again on demand. However, the broker polls the URL every sasl.oauthbearer.jwks.endpoint.refresh.ms milliseconds to refresh the cache with any forthcoming keys before any JWT requests that include them are received. If the URL is file-based, the broker will load the JWKS file from a configured location on startup. In the event that the JWT includes a "kid" header value that isn't in the JWKS file, the broker will reject the JWT and authentication will fail.
Type: string Default: null Valid Values: Importance: medium Update Mode: read-only -
