Apache Kafka preguntas y respuestas de entrevista
Pregunta 11. Explain the concept of Leader and Follower.
In every partition of Kafka, there is one server which acts as the Leader, and none or more servers plays the role as a Followers.
Pregunta 12. What ensures load balancing of the server in Kafka?
As the main role of the Leader is to perform the task of all read and write requests for the partition, whereas Followers passively replicate the leader. Hence, at the time of Leader failing, one of the Followers takeover the role of the Leader. Basically, this entire process ensures load balancing of the servers.
