KRaft (Kafka Raft)

KRaft (Kafka Raft) is a protocol based on the Raft Consensus Protocol tailored for Apache Kafka.

This is used by Apache Kafka in the KRaft (Kafka Raft Metadata) mode. We also have a standalone test server which can be used for performance testing. We describe the details to set this up below.

Run Single Quorum

bin/test-kraft-server-start.sh --config config/kraft.properties

Run Multi Node Quorum

Create 3 separate KRaft quorum properties as the following:

cat << EOF >> config/kraft-quorum-1.properties

node.id=1
listeners=PLAINTEXT://localhost:9092
controller.listener.names=PLAINTEXT
controller.quorum.voters=1@localhost:9092,2@localhost:9093,3@localhost:9094
log.dirs=/tmp/kraft-logs-1
EOF

cat << EOF >> config/kraft-quorum-2.properties

node.id=2
listeners=PLAINTEXT://localhost:9093
controller.listener.names=PLAINTEXT
controller.quorum.voters=1@localhost:9092,2@localhost:9093,3@localhost:9094
log.dirs=/tmp/kraft-logs-2
EOF

cat << EOF >> config/kraft-quorum-3.properties

node.id=3
listeners=PLAINTEXT://localhost:9094
controller.listener.names=PLAINTEXT
controller.quorum.voters=1@localhost:9092,2@localhost:9093,3@localhost:9094
log.dirs=/tmp/kraft-logs-3
EOF

Open up 3 separate terminals, and run individual commands:

bin/test-kraft-server-start.sh --config config/kraft-quorum-1.properties
bin/test-kraft-server-start.sh --config config/kraft-quorum-2.properties
bin/test-kraft-server-start.sh --config config/kraft-quorum-3.properties

Once a leader is elected, it will begin writing to an internal __raft_performance_test topic with a steady workload of random data. You can control the workload using the --throughput and --record-size arguments passed to test-kraft-server-start.sh.
