Kafka - Multi-Datacenter and Replication
You have an active-active Kafka setup but notice data conflicts between clusters. What is a likely cause?
AOnly one cluster is receiving traffic.
BClusters are in active-passive mode.
CLack of proper conflict resolution or synchronization mechanism.
DKafka does not support active-active setups.
Step-by-Step Solution

    In active-active, conflicts arise without conflict resolution or sync.

  2. Step 2: Eliminate incorrect options

    B assumes wrong mode, C means no conflict, D is false.

  3. Final Answer:

    Lack of proper conflict resolution or synchronization mechanism. -> Option C

  4. Quick Check:

    Data conflicts cause = A [OK]
Quick Trick: Active-active needs conflict resolution [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing active-active with active-passive
  • Ignoring conflict resolution needs
  • Believing Kafka lacks active-active support
