0.8 consumers compatibility with Kafka 0.10

[Vladi Feigin <vl...@liveperson.com>]

Hi All,

We are using low-level API consumer in Kaka 0.8.2
The question : Is Kafka 0.10 backward compatible with this old consumer ?
Or we have to rewrite consumers when moving to 0.10?

Thank you,
Vladi

Hi Vladi,

There is a good place to start:
http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#upgrade_10
As you can see there are a lot of nitty-gritty aspects, so the answer is:
 "it depends"

Cheers,
Vlad

Hi Vladi,

Generally, newer brokers are compatible with older clients. As Vladimir
said, the upgrade page (http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#upgrade)
includes detailed information about changes that could have a compatibility
impact.
