> *Case*
> Streams application with two input topics being used for a left join.
> When the left side topic is missing upon starting the streams application, it
> hangs "in the middle" of the topology (at …00009, see below). Only parts of
> the intermediate topics are created (up to …00009)
> When the missing input topic is created, the streams application resumes
> processing.

> {noformat}
> *Why this matters*
> The applications does quite a lot of preprocessing before joining with the
> missing input topic. This preprocessing won't happen without the topic,
> creating a huge backlog of data.
> *Fix*
> Issue an `warn` or `error` level message at start to inform about the missing
> topic and it's consequences.
