Re: Pause/Restart a Kafka streams app

You can only close() the Kafka Streams client and create a new one to
resume (offsets are committed on close() and thus would be picked up on
restart).

Closing and restarting would result in rebalancing thought, so to really
pause/resume you would need to close() all instances.


There is no API to pause()/resume() similar to what the KafkaConsumer
offers.
