If a broker's JVM garbage collection takes too long, what can occur?
Answer(s): B
If the broker's JVM garbage collection (GC) pause is too long, it may fail to send heartbeats to ZooKeeper within the expected interval. As a result, ZooKeeper considers the broker dead, and the broker may be removed from the cluster, triggering leader elections and partition reassignments.
You are managing a Kafka cluster with five brokers (broker id '0', '1','2','3','4') and three ZooKeepers. There are 100 topics, five partitions for each topic, and replication factor three on the cluster. Broker id `0' is currently the Controller, and this broker suddenly fails.Which statements are correct? (Choose three.)
Answer(s): A,B,C
Kafka relies on ZooKeeper's ephemeral nodes to detect if a broker (controller) goes down and to elect a new controller.The controller manages partition leadership assignments and handles leader election when a broker fails.The epoch number ensures coordination and avoids outdated controllers acting on stale data.
When a broker goes down, what will the Controller do?
When a broker goes down, the Controller detects the failure and triggers a leader election for all partitions that had their leader on the failed broker. The leader is chosen from the in-sync replicas (ISRs) of each partition.
Which technology can be used to perform event stream processing? (Choose two.)
Answer(s): B,C
Kafka Streams is a client library for building real-time applications that process and analyze data stored in Kafka.ksqlDB enables event stream processing using SQL-like queries, allowing real-time transformation and analysis of Kafka topics.
How can load balancing of Kafka clients across multiple brokers be accomplished?
Answer(s): A
Partitions are the primary mechanism for achieving load balancing in Kafka. When a topic has multiple partitions, Kafka clients (producers and consumers) can distribute the load across brokers hosting these partitions.
A company is setting up a log ingestion use case where they will consume logs from numerous systems. The company wants to tune Kafka for the utmost throughput. In this scenario, what acknowledgment setting makes the most sense?
acks=0 provides the highest throughput because the producer does not wait for any acknowledgment from the broker. This minimizes latency and maximizes performance. However, it comes at the cost of no durability guarantees -- messages may be lost if the broker fails before writing them. This setting is suitable when throughput is critical and occasional data loss is acceptable, such as in some log ingestion use cases where logs are also stored elsewhere.
Your Kafka cluster has four brokers. The topic t1 on the cluster has two partitions, and it has a replication factor of three. You create a Consumer Group with four consumers, which subscribes to t1.In the scenario above, how many Controllers are in the Kafka cluster?
In a Kafka cluster, only one broker acts as the Controller at any given time. The Controller is responsible for managing cluster metadata, such as partition leadership and broker status. Even if the cluster has multiple brokers (in this case, four), only one is elected as the Controller, and others serve as regular brokers. If the current Controller fails, another broker is automatically elected to take its place.
You want to increase Producer throughput for the messages it sends to your Kafka cluster by tuning the batch size (`batch size') and the time the Producer waits before sending a batch (`linger.ms').According to best practices, what should you do?
Answer(s): D
Increasing batch.size allows the producer to accumulate more messages into a single batch, improving compression and reducing the number of requests sent to the broker. Increasing linger.ms gives the producer more time to fill up batches before sending them, which improves batching efficiency and throughput.This combination is a best practice for maximizing throughput, especially when message volume is high or consistent latency is not a strict requirement.

question 232 answer should be perimeter not netowrk layer. wrong answer selected
nice questions
hi team, could you please provide this dump ?
very helpful to clear the exam and understand the concept.
i think it is great that you are helping people when they need it. thanks.
cannot evaluate yet
a laptops wireless antenna is most likely located in the bezel of the lid
good examplae to learn basic
this is useful information
looks usefull
question 81 should be c.
question 18 : response isnt a ?
plaese add questions
is dumps still valid ?
thanks for this
please upload questions
please upload the question dump for professional machinelearning
question 4 answer is c. this site shows the correct answer as b. "adopt a consumption model" is clearly a cost optimization design principle. looks like im done using this site to study!!!
number 52 answer is d
just started preparing for my exam , and this site is so much help
question 35 is incorrect, the correct answer is c, it even states so: explanation: when a vm is infected with ransomware, you should not restore the vm to the infected vm. this is because the ransomware will still be present on the vm, and it will encrypt the files again. you should also not restore the vm to any vm within the companys subscription. this is because the ransomware could spread to other vms in the subscription. the best way to restore a vm that is infected with ransomware is to restore it to a new azure vm. this will ensure that the ransomware is not present on the new vm.
i would like to take psm1 exam.

anyone use this? the question dont seem to follow other formats and terminology i have been studying im getting worried
good questions
hello are these questions valid for ms-102
some questions are wrongly answered but its good nonetheless
