The ConsumerRebalanceListener lets you handle partition assignments and revocations during rebalances. This is critical for managing offsets, stateful processing, or external transactions.

From Kafka Consumer Rebalance Docs:

“Implementing ConsumerRebalanceListener allows your application to take action before and after partitions are reassigned.”

A is true: It lets your app react when partitions assigned to the consumer change.

B, C, and D are unrelated to consumer rebalancing directly.

Session windows are ideal for tracking periods of activity separated by inactivity, such as user sessions.

From Kafka Streams Documentation > Windowing:

“A session window captures streams of events that are intermittent and separated by a gap of inactivity.”

Tumbling/Hopping/Sliding windows are fixed in size

Session windows are dynamic and close after inactivity timeout

This makes them perfect for identifying gaps in user interaction.

The official Apache Kafka Connect documentation explains that connectors run within the same worker JVM, and all logs are written through the worker’s logging framework (Log4j or Log4j2). To isolate logs for a specific connector, Kafka Connect supports connector-specific logging contexts, which can be routed to separate log files using logging configuration.

By modifying the log4j.properties (or log4j2.xml) file to define a dedicated logger and appender for the connector’s package or class name, you can direct logs from that connector to a separate file. This is the recommended and documented approach for debugging individual connectors in a shared Connect cluster.

Option A is incorrect because there is no generic “enable connector context” switch. Option B may increase verbosity but does not isolate logs per connector. Option D is false; Kafka Connect explicitly supports connector-level log separation through logging configuration.

Therefore, the correct approach is to configure a dedicated log appender for the specific connector.
