easy📝 Syntax Q12 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand Kafka config value units
Kafka expectsbuffer.memoryin bytes, not with units like MB or m.Step 2: Convert 32MB to bytes
32MB = 32 * 1024 * 1024 = 33554432 bytes, so the value must be numeric bytes.Final Answer:
buffer.memory=33554432 -> Option AQuick Check:
Buffer memory uses bytes, not MB string [OK]
Quick Trick: Use bytes number, not MB string, for buffer.memory [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Adding MB or m suffix which Kafka does not parse
- Using too small number without units
- Confusing buffer.memory with batch.size units
