> I don't see how there could be data loss? There could be data loss, because locally the windowed state store would store records for a longer period of time than in the changelog topic. If a Kafka Streams client is restarted with wiped out state it might restore less records into the state store than the state store had before the restart. In other words, if the Kafka Streams state store were not restarted, it would have more records than after the restart. This might happen because records that are outside the shorter retention time of the changelog topic might have already been removed from the changelog topic. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
