> Nowadays if we use a log4j2-Kafka-appender with Spring Boot framework and
> Kafka is unavailable for some reason, the application crashes. We may have
> several appenders (File appender, SYSOUT, etc) and I think that Kafka's
> inaccessibility is not a reason for the failure of an application.

> I can offer to add a special boolean property to logger config named
> *ignoreKafkaConnectionError* and in depends on its value we can either catch
> kafka exceptions occurred while producer creating or not.
> I have implemented this feature and have opened the pull request:
