CCDAK Exam Dumps : Confluent Certified Developer for Apache Kafka Certification Examination

Kafka Connectsource connectorsuse theoffset.storage.topicconfiguration parameter to define where to storeoffsets that track the connector's positionin the source system (e.g., database, file, etc.).

FromKafka Connect Worker Configuration:

“offset.storage.topic specifies the topic in Kafka where the connector stores offsets for each source partition.”

This allows Kafka Connect toresumefrom the correct position on restart.

The other options (B–D) are not valid Kafka configs.

unclean.leader.election.enable=false→ Prevents data loss by only considering in-sync replicas when rebalancing.

replication.factor→ Specifies how many redundant copies of partitions are distributed across brokers.

min.insync.replicas=2→ Sets the standard for the number of partition instances that must keep up with the latest committed message.

unclean.leader.election.enable=false ensures that onlyin-sync replicascan be elected as leaders. If disabled, an out-of-sync replica may become leader, potentially leading to data loss.

replication.factor defineshow many brokerswill maintain copies of each partition, directly impacting durability and availability.

min.insync.replicas determineshow many replicas must acknowledgea write when acks=all is used, enforcing write durability.

The default maximum message size that a Kafka broker accepts is1MB (1,048,576 bytes), controlled by the config propertymessage.max.bytes.

FromKafka Broker Configuration Docs:

“The default maximum message size is 1MB. To accept larger messages, configure message.max.bytes and the producer’s max.request.size.”

Producers also have a matching limit via max.request.size, and consumers via fetch.message.max.bytes.
