Kafka - Performance Tuning

Given this Kafka producer config snippet:

{"batch.size": 16384, "compression.type": "gzip"}

What is the expected effect on message sending?

AMessages are batched but not compressed.

BMessages are sent immediately without batching or compression.

CMessages are batched up to 16 KB and compressed with gzip before sending.

DMessages are compressed with gzip but sent one by one.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Analyze batch.size setting
Batch size 16384 means messages are grouped up to 16 KB before sending.
Step 2: Analyze compression.type setting
Compression type gzip means batches are compressed using gzip codec before sending.
Final Answer:
Messages are batched up to 16 KB and compressed with gzip before sending. -> Option C
Quick Check:
batch.size + compression.type = batched & compressed [OK]

Quick Trick: Batch size limits batch bytes; compression.type sets codec [OK]
