> Key: KAFKA-6437
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6437
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: streams
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Environment: Single client on single node broker
> Reporter: Chris Schwarzfischer
> Priority: Minor
>
> *Case*
> Streams application with two input topics being used for a left join.
> When the left side topic is missing upon starting the streams application, it hangs "in the middle" of the topology (at …00009, see below). Only parts of the intermediate topics are created (up to …00009)
> When the missing input topic is created, the streams application resumes processing.

> *Why this matters*
> The applications does quite a lot of preprocessing before joining with the missing input topic. This preprocessing won't happen without the topic, creating a huge backlog of data.
> *Fix*
> Issue an `warn` or `error` level message at start to inform about the missing topic and it's consequences.
