Hi All, I am new to Kafka, I want to make sure Kafka server is available before I can do any polling to the messages. What I did is creating a consumer without subscription and try to access the partitions metadata for a specific topic. This trick works for the first time. If I take the brokers down and get one up and test the connectivity, it fails.
My problem is, I am not sure if this is the right way to ensure connectivity. I appreciate any feedback about the best way to do this on Kafka 0.9.0.1. Thanks! -- *Best Regards/أطيب المنى,* *Anas Mosaad* *Incorta Inc.* *+20-100-743-4510*
