You want to design a Kafka deployment for a critical application requiring zero downtime and high throughput. Which setup is best and why?
ASingle cluster with no replication, to reduce complexity.
BActive-passive, because one cluster handles all traffic and the other is backup.
CActive-active, because multiple clusters share load and provide failover simultaneously.
DPassive-only clusters to save resources.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify requirements

    Zero downtime and high throughput require load sharing and failover. Active-active allows multiple clusters to share load and provide failover simultaneously.
  2. Final Answer:

    Active-active, because multiple clusters share load and provide failover simultaneously. -> Option C
  3. Quick Check:

    High availability + throughput = active-active [OK]
Quick Trick: Active-active suits zero downtime and high throughput needs [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Choosing active-passive for high throughput
  • Ignoring failover and load sharing benefits
  • Selecting single cluster risking downtime
