--------------------------------------
Summary: Offsets clean up based on largest Timestamp in a Log
segment
Key: KAFKA-13084
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13084
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: config
Reporter: Mohamed Aashif
This is to confirm the behaviour of
[retention.ms|https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#topicconfigs_retention.ms].
On observation, a log segment is kept undeleted until the _*Largest timestamp*_
of the offsets in that segment.
Initially, we thought that the _*Largest timestamp* **_ is the considered from
the created time of the record. But, it is considered from the timestamp of the
_ProducerRecord,_ which can be entered manually.
We suspect if this is intentional, as the log segment can be undeleted forever
if the timestamp of a far future time is given.
Please
clarify.[|https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#topicconfigs_retention.ms]
