Gary Russell commented on KAFKA-8531:
-------------------------------------
The docs for default.replication.factor should also be changed to reflect this
new usage; currently, it's:
{quote}
default replication factors for automatically created topics
{quote}
> Change default replication factor config

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: streams
> Affects Versions: 2.3.0

> With KAFKA-8305, AdminClient allows to create topics based on the broker
> default replication factor.
> Kafka Streams sets `replication.factor` to 1 by default atm, to give a good
> out-of-the-box user experience. The problem is, that people may need to
> change the config if they push an application to production.
> We should change the default to `-1` to exploit the new AdminClient feature.
> This won't impact the out-of-the-box experience and may avoids the need to
> change the setting when pushing an application to production.
> We piggy-back this change to the original KIP:
