Public IPs for brokers
Hi all,
do I have to necessarily have public IPs for all the brokers? Since we can
give a few of the IPs in bootstrap.servers config.

If you use a load balancer bear in mind the importance of the
advertised.listeners setting:

is it recommended to use ALB(running all 3 nodes on ec2 instances) or
something similar?

Hi Himanshu,
Short answer: yes.
The way a Kafka client works is to connect to one of the given bootstrap
brokers and ask it about the rest of the cluster. The client then connects
to those brokers as necessary. So in general a client will need to connect
to all brokers in the cluster and therefore the broker IPs need to be
routable from the client.
Cheers,
Tom
