Kafka - Multi-Datacenter and Replication

AMessages are processed independently and replicated asynchronously between clusters.

BOnly one cluster accepts messages; the other rejects them.

CMessages are lost if produced to both clusters at the same time.

DClusters merge messages automatically without conflicts.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand active-active message handling
In active-active, both clusters accept messages and replicate asynchronously. Messages are processed independently and replicated asynchronously between clusters. correctly states messages are processed independently and replicated asynchronously between clusters.
Final Answer:
Messages are processed independently and replicated asynchronously between clusters. -> Option A
Quick Check:
Active-active = independent processing + async replication [OK]

Quick Trick: Active-active clusters replicate asynchronously, handling messages independently [OK]
