Kafka Producer Template

This repository serves as a template for a Kafka producer, offering flexible and powerful ways to send messages to Kafka topics. It supports three distinct methods of sending messages, making it a versatile solution for various data processing scenarios.

Features

  1. Broadcast: The message is sent to all partitions of a Kafka topic without binding to a specific key. This is used when you need to send a message to all consumers without partitioning by queues.

  2. Queueing by Key: The message is sent with a specific key, ensuring its delivery to a designated partition of the topic. This ensures sequential processing of messages with the same key and is used to manage tasks that require ordered processing in a queue.

  3. Rate-limited Sending: The ability to send messages at a specified rate limit. This approach is useful when you need to control the load on Kafka brokers or limit the processing speed for an even distribution of the load.

How to Use

Clone the repository and configure the connection to your Kafka broker. Choose and configure the desired method for sending messages (broadcast, queueing by key, or rate-limited sending). Integrate the template into your application for quick and efficient Kafka message handling.

BroadCast

Each application instance should have its own static consumer group, ensuring they can read from a single partition independently. This design allows for scalability by increasing the number of partitions if needed, though it's not a strict requirement for functionality.
