According to the Kafka 8 documentation under broker configuration. There
are these parameters and their definitions.
log.retention.bytes -1 The maximum size of the log before deleting it
log.retention.bytes.per.topic "" The maximum size of the log for some
specific topic before deleting it
I'm curious what the first value 'log.retention.bytes' is for if the second
one is for per topic logs, because aren't all logs generated per topic? Is
this an aggregate value across topics?
Related question, is there a parameter for kafka where you can say only
hold this much TOTAL data across all topic ( logs/index together )? I.e.
our hosts have this much available space and so value
log.retention.whatever.aggregate == 75% total disk space.
