Kafka Connect - Task

Converter Basics

About

Task is a connector implementation on how data is copied to or from Kafka

Metadata

These tasks have no state stored within them. Task state is stored in Kafka in special topics and managed by the associated connector.

Failure

When a worker fails, tasks are rebalanced across the active workers. When a task fails, no rebalance is triggered as a task failure is considered an exceptional case. As such, failed tasks are not automatically restarted by the framework and should be restarted via the REST API.
