Hi there, I am new to Kafka and I would like to get some clarifications for a newbie question,
Let's say if I have set up my consumer's "enable.auto.commit" to false, and then poll the records one at a time. So when calling poll(), starting from offset 0, if any exception is thrown, should I expect to get the record at offset 0 or offset 1 when I call poll() again? The reason I'm asking for this is bc in the Kafka Doc, it says that, "The position of the consumer gives the offset of the next record that will be given out. It will be one larger than the highest offset the consumer has seen in that partition. It automatically advances every time the consumer receives messages in a call to poll(Duration)." But in my described situation above, an exception is thrown, I'm not sure if this is counted as a successful poll (meaning that the next poll() will give the next record) or a failed one (meaning that the next poll() will give the same record again). I would really appreciate it for your help. Thanks, Zhen Zhang Software Engineer [image: Twilio] <https://www.twilio.com/?utm_source=email_signature> MOBILE (949) 771-6073 EMAIL zzh...@twilio.com
