KAFKA-19652 - Consumer throughput drops by 10 times with Kafka v3.9.0 in ZK mode

Hello Kafka Users and Developers, For KAFKA-19652 - Consumer throughput drops by 10 times with Kafka v3.9.0 in ZK mode I wanted to understand if this is a known issue or an isolated edge case. It was reported back in August 2025 and subsequently confirmed by 2 other people, able to reproduce the throughput drop. Although nothing specifically identifying as a blocker for upgrades to this version or later. Having min.insync.replicas=2 I guess is fairly common, so this would affect many installations. Thanks, Mark

Re: Version info that supports Jetty v12.0.25

If you are urgently needing to adopt a Jetty release on your own schedule, rather than Kafka's schedule, you can always adopt new Jetty with your current Kafka version using Maven's <dependencyManagement> feature. This works for most projects, not just Kafka. Of course then you should test that the new combination works acceptably to your requirements, but it at least gives you an independent path forward without needing to pressure Kafka maintainers on new releases with dependency updates, until the normal release process delivers a fixed Kafka artifact. > > Regards, > Apoorva Maheshwari > > From: Apoorva Maheshwari > Sent: 13 Febr...

Re: [ANNOUNCE] New Kafka PMC member: Andrew Schofield

Sachin, thanks a lot for your interest. Please read up on how to get started to contribute to ASF projects: https://www.apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html In particular read about "how to become a committer", which is usually the first step before one gets invited to join the PMC: https://community.apache.org/contributors/ There is also more material about it on the Kafka web page: https://kafka.apache.org/community/developer/#becoming-a-committer More about "roles" in the ASF: https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works/#roles Hope this helps, -Matthias On 2/23/26 5:46 PM, Sachin Bal wrote: > Hello All, > > I too am interested in contributing to the PMC.

Re: Broker not triggering scheduled RLMCopy tasks

Hi Avishek Das: To be honest, I don't currently have an environment to monitor the log to know the details logic for upload. Based on my code review, it appears that the task was created in my case. The similarities between my case and yours are: 1. Not all servers are affected. 2. The issue occurred after a restart. You could try the following method to see if it resolves the issue: 1. Upgrade Kafka to 4.2.0, which was just released this week. 2. If you don't want to upgrade kafka. Increase remote.log.metadata.initialization.retry.max.timeout.ms from 2 minutes to a larger value, such as 20 minutes and do restart. Maybe we can also wait whether other guys can have some other feedbacks for your issue.

Re: Kafka client partitionsFor API change in behavior (Kafka-client-4.1.1)

Hi Subra, It seems to me both use an async approach. The root cause is that the returned error code is different. Please check https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-20089 for more details.

Re: Kafka client partitionsFor API change in behavior (Kafka-client-4.1.1)

Thanks for the response Lianet. This problem happens only in kraft mode brokers. Works fine if we use kafka broker in non-kraft mode. (WIth zookeeper) From what I understand: (I may be wrong. this is what I read online) In zookeeper mode, on getting a partitionsFor request, the broker creates a topic if not present and then immediately returns the number of partitions. All this happens synchronously. In kraft mode, the broker creates a topic asynchronously. So, unless u retry, you wont get the total number of partitions. Like I said, this is what I read.

Re: Tiered Storage Disable Feature Not Working in Kafka 3.9

Hi Avishek, Unfortunately, disabling tiered storage only works under KRaft mode. If you look closely at the KIP-950[1], you'll see this sentence (see the underlined section): > *Support for Both KRaft and Zookeeper-backed Clusters*: The tiered storage disablement feature should be designed and implemented to support both KRaft and Zookeeper-backed Kafka clusters, ensuring compatibility across different cluster configurations. Updated: *We will implement for KRaft only in v3.9.0.* I agree that the KIP itself seems to state that it will work with both. But in the end it was only implemented in KRaft mode. Also, one can see in the documentation PR[2] that it only mentions how to disable it in KRaft mode. Sorry this is not the answer you were looking for.

Re: Broker not triggering scheduled RLMCopy tasks

Hello Jian, Thanks for sharing the references.

Tiered Storage Disable Feature Not Working in Kafka 3.9

Hello Community, As part of our testing, I am validating the scenario where tiered storage is disabled on a topic where it was previously enabled. I attempted to alter the topic configuration using the following configs: remote.storage.enable=true remote.log.copy.disable=true However, this results in an exception stating that remote.log.copy.disable is not valid in ZooKeeper mode. Caused by: org.apache.kafka.common.errors.InvalidConfigurationException: It is invalid to set `remote.log.delete.on.disable` or `remote.log.copy.disable` under Zookeeper's mode. We are running Kafka v3.9.1 on a ZooKeeper-backed cluster, and based on the KIP-950 < https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=263424654#KIP950:TieredStorageDisablement-StateTransitions > documentation, these configurations appear to be available for ZooKeeper-based clusters as well. Am I missing any prerequisite or additional step required to disable Tiered Storage ...

[ANNOUNCE] Apache Kafka 4.2.0

The Apache Kafka community is pleased to announce the release for Apache Kafka 4.2.0 This release has many exciting changes: * Kafka Queues (Share Groups) is now production-ready with new features like the RENEW acknowledgement type for extended processing times, adaptive batching for share coordinators, soft and strict enforcements of quantity of fetched records, and comprehensive lag metrics. * Kafka Streams brings the server-side rebalance protocol to GA with a limited feature set, adds dead letter queue support in exception handlers, introduces anchored wall-clock punctuation for deterministic scheduling, and gives users full control over whether to send a leave group request on closing. * This release also delivers significant improvements to consistency and observability: CLI tools now feature standardized arguments like –bootstrap-server across all tools, metric naming has been corrected to follow the kafka.COMPONENT convention, and new idle ratio metrics pr...

Re: Kafka client partitionsFor API change in behavior (Kafka-client-4.1.1)

Hi Anand, The partitionsFor API does not guarantee that a single call will return the data if the topic does not exist. It issues a first metadata request to create the topic, and waits for the api timeout for a response (timeout param or default.api.timeout.ms config). Then returns whatever it gets from the broker in that single call (empty if the topic is not found within the timeout, described in the java docs https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/e678b4bb7ca99c7d1be0d554ffe7e66f584771d6/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/consumer/KafkaConsumer.java#L1415 ). Also there are old integration tests with the pattern you describe: a first call to ensure topic is created, then a following one expected to retrieve the partitions for the topic (e.g, in 3.9 branch https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/5e9866f43ab8e7e41ef39e5584ac50019381328d/core/src/test/scala/integration/kafka/api/PlaintextConsumerTest.scala#L176 ) That being said, I wonder if the difference you...

Broker not triggering scheduled RLMCopy tasks

Hello Team, During tiered storage performance testing on Kafka 3.9.1, we observed cases where a broker did not trigger scheduled RLMCopy tasks, resulting in no segment uploads to remote storage. Scenarios observed: - During a rolling restart while tiered storage was actively copying segments, one broker (out of six) stopped copying segments after restart. - After multiple rolling restarts before enabling tiered storage at topic level, enabling tiered storage again caused one broker (out of six) to stop copying segments. In both cases, restarting the affected broker resolved the issue and copying resumed. DEBUG logging showed that RLMCopy tasks were created for leader partitions, traffic was active, and rolled segments were available. However, no debug logs appeared from the actual copy path < https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/3.9/core/src/main/java/kafka/log/remote/RemoteLogManager.java#L839 >, suggesting the copy workflow was not being tri...

Thanks Sean, I really enjoyed this track last year.

Community Over Code 2026, Glasgow

Hello, The Call For Papers is now open for the Apache Software Foundation's Community Over Code conference this October in Glasgow. There is a track on "AI Plumbing" at the conference that may be of interest to recipients of this email. Though it doesn't need to be the plumbing focus, I think that a lot can be said about agentic AI. Agentic AI has gotten a lot of buzz in the AI world, and one of the most important things in making agents useful is throwing them together with some good plumbing, e.g. linear or graph-based workflows, orchestration tactics, -communication- protocols, memory, knowledge graphs, etc. There is a lot to talk about. This track might be a perfect place to present efforts in the area, display some work, and perhaps hold a general discussion on experience. Again, Agentic AI is not the focus. Anything regarding putting together any type of AI workflows will be considered relevant. Please forward this email to anybody you know th...
