A broker in the Kafka cluster is currently acting as the Controller.

Which statement is correct?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The Controller broker is a regular broker that also takes on additional responsibilities for managing cluster metadata, such as leader elections and partition assignments. It still hosts topic partitions and participates in replication like any other broker.

The controller in Kafka is responsible for managing the cluster, so I believe the correct answer is B - it is given precedence for replication to and from replica followers. I feel good about this one.
