Hi, I am using a Kafka producer java client by vert.x framework. https://vertx.io/docs/apidocs/io/vertx/kafka/client/producer/KafkaProducer.html
There is a producer setting in kafka: connections.max.idle.ms = 540000 So if there are no records to produce then after 9 minutes I get this in my logs: [kafka-producer-network-thread | RecordProducer] [NetworkClient.java:977] - [Producer clientId=RecordProducer] Node -1 disconnected. What it looks like is the Kafka producer object I had created has lost its connection due to this setting. What are my options to ensure that Kafka producer client does not close idle connections or reconnects or keeps alive even when no records to produce arrive for a long time? Thanks Sachin
