Interview Questions and Answers

 Q1. If we have more threads than partitions in a kafka consumer, How can we model it efficiently ?
Ans. We will have to use multiple consumer groups in that case as threads will remain idle if we use single consumer group. A more sophisticated algorithm could be required with multiple groups if we have to ensure the order of consumption.
