Hey All,

We have a Kafka Streams application which ingests from a topic to which
more than 15K messages are generated per second. The app filters a few of
them, counts the number of unique filtered messages (based on one
particular field) within a 1 min time window, and dumps it back to Kafka.

The issue that we are facing is that for certain minutes, there is no data
in the sink topic. I have attached the data from 03:30AM to 10:00 AM today
morning with this mail. And if you notice closely, the data for quite a few
minutes is missing.

One thing that we have noticed is that the skipped-records-rate metrics
emitted by Kafka is around 200 for each thread. By the way, what does
metric indicate? Does this represent the filtered out messages?

We have checked the raw data in the source topic and didn't find any
discrepancy.

We even checked the logs on the stream app boxes and the only errors we
found were GC errors.


Other relevant info:

Kafka version: 0.10.2.0
Number of partitions for source topic: 50
Stream App cluster: 5 machines with 10 threads each

 How do we debug this? What could be the cause?
