MirrorMaker 2.0
MM2 leverages the Connect framework to replicate topics between Kafka clusters. MM2 includes several new features, including:

both topics and consumer groups are replicated
topic configuration and ACLs are replicated
cross-cluster offsets are synchronized
partitioning is preserved
Replication flows
MM2 replicates topics and consumer groups from upstream source clusters to downstream target clusters. These directional flows are notated A->B.

It’s possible to create complex replication topologies based on these source->target flows, including:

fan-out, e.g. K->A, K->B, K->C
aggregation, e.g. A->K, B->K, C->K
active/active, e.g. A->B, B->A

Each replication flow can be configured independently, e.g. to replicate specific topics or groups:

A->B.topics = topic-1, topic-2
A->B.groups = group-1, group-2

By default, all topics and consumer groups are replicated (except excluded ones), across all enabled replication flows. Each replication flow must be explicitly enabled to begin replication:

A->B.enabled = true
B->A.enabled = true

Starting an MM2 process
You can run any number of MM2 processes as needed. Any MM2 processes which are configured to replicate the same Kafka clusters will find each other, share configuration, load balance, etc.

To start an MM2 process, first specify Kafka cluster information in a configuration file as follows:

mm2.properties

clusters = us-west, us-east
us-west.bootstrap.servers = host1:9092
us-east.bootstrap.servers = host2:9092

You can list any number of clusters this way.

Optionally, you can override default MirrorMaker properties:

topics = .*
groups = group1, group2
emit.checkpoints.interval.seconds = 10

These will apply to all replication flows. You can also override default properties for specific clusters or replication flows:

configure a specific cluster

us-west.offset.storage.topic = mm2-offsets

configure a specific source->target replication flow

us-west->us-east.emit.heartbeats = false
Next, enable individual replication flows as follows:

us-west->us-east.enabled = true # disabled by default
Finally, launch one or more MirrorMaker processes with the connect-mirror-maker.sh script:

$ ./bin/connect-mirror-maker.sh mm2.properties
Multicluster environments
MM2 supports replication between multiple Kafka clusters, whether in the same data center or across multiple data centers. A single MM2 cluster can span multiple data centers, but it is recommended to keep MM2’s producers as close as possible to their target clusters. To do so, specify a subset of clusters for each MM2 node as follows:

in west DC:

$ ./bin/connect-mirror-maker.sh mm2.properties --clusters west-1 west-2
This signals to the node that the given clusters are nearby, and prevents the node from sending records or configuration to clusters in other data centers.

Example
Say there are three data centers (west, east, north) with two Kafka clusters in each data center (west-1, west-2 etc). We can configure MM2 for active/active replication within each data center, as well as cross data center replication (XDCR) as follows:

mm2.properties

clusters: west-1, west-2, east-1, east-2, north-1, north-2

west-1.bootstrap.servers = …
—%<—

active/active in west

west-1->west-2.enabled = true
west-2->west-1.enabled = true

active/active in east

east-1->east-2.enabled = true
east-2->east-1.enabled = true

active/active in north

north-1->north-2.enabled = true
north-2->north-1.enabled = true

XDCR via west-1, east-1, north-1

west-1->east-1.enabled = true
west-1->north-1.enabled = true
east-1->west-1.enabled = true
east-1->north-1.enabled = true
north-1->west-1.enabled = true
north-1->east-1.enabled = true

Then, launch MM2 in each data center as follows:

in west:

$ ./bin/connect-mirror-maker.sh mm2.properties --clusters west-1 west-2

in east:

$ ./bin/connect-mirror-maker.sh mm2.properties --clusters east-1 east-2

in north:

$ ./bin/connect-mirror-maker.sh mm2.properties --clusters north-1 north-2
With this configuration, records produced to any cluster will be replicated within the data center, as well as across to other data centers. By providing the --clusters parameter, we ensure that each node only produces records to nearby clusters.

N.B. that the --clusters parameter is not technically required here. MM2 will work fine without it; however, throughput may suffer from “producer lag” between data centers, and you may incur unnecessary data transfer costs.

Configuration
The following sections target for dedicated MM2 cluster. If running MM2 in a Connect cluster, please refer to KIP-382: MirrorMaker 2.0 for guidance.

General Kafka Connect Config
All Kafka Connect, Source Connector, Sink Connector configs, as defined in Kafka official doc, can be directly used in MM2 configuration without prefix in the configuration name. As the starting point, most of these default configs may work well with the exception of tasks.max.

In order to evenly distribute the workload across more than one MM2 instance, it is advised to set tasks.max at least to 2 or even larger depending on the hardware resources and the total number partitions to be replicated.

Kafka Connect Config for a Specific Connector
If needed, Kafka Connect worker-level configs could be even specified “per connector”, which needs to follow the format of cluster_alias.config_name in MM2 configuration. For example,

backup.ssl.truststore.location = /usr/lib/jvm/zulu-8-amd64/jre/lib/security/cacerts // SSL cert location
backup.security.protocol = SSL // if target cluster needs SSL to send message
MM2 Config for a Specific Connector
MM2 itself has many configs to control how it behaves. To override those default values, add the config name by the format of source_cluster_alias->target_cluster_alias.config_name in MM2 configuration. For example,

backup->primary.enabled = false // set to false if one-way replication is desired
primary->backup.topics.blacklist = topics_to_blacklist
primary->backup.emit.heartbeats.enabled = false
primary->backup.sync.group.offsets = true
Producer / Consumer / Admin Config used by MM2
In many cases, customized values for producer or consumer configurations are needed. In order to override the default values of producer or consumer used by MM2, target_cluster_alias.producer.producer_config_name, source_cluster_alias.consumer.consumer_config_name or cluster_alias.admin.admin_config_name are the formats to use in MM2 configuration. For example,

backup.producer.compression.type = gzip
backup.producer.buffer.memory = 32768
primary.consumer.isolation.level = read_committed
primary.admin.bootstrap.servers = localhost:9092
Shared configuration
MM2 processes share configuration via their target Kafka clusters. For example, the following two processes would be racy:

process1:

A->B.enabled = true
A->B.topics = foo

process2:

A->B.enabled = true
A->B.topics = bar
In this case, the two processes will share configuration via cluster B. Depending on which processes is elected “leader”, the result will be that either foo or bar is replicated – but not both. For this reason, it is important to keep configuration consistent across flows to the same target cluster. In most cases, your entire organization should use a single MM2 configuration file.

Remote topics
MM2 employs a naming convention to ensure that records from different clusters are not written to the same partition. By default, replicated topics are renamed based on “source cluster aliases”:

topic-1 --> source.topic-1
This can be customized by overriding the replication.policy.separator property (default is a period). If you need more control over how remote topics are defined, you can implement a custom ReplicationPolicy and override replication.policy.class (default is DefaultReplicationPolicy).

Monitoring an MM2 process
MM2 is built on the Connect framework and inherits all of Connect’s metrics, e.g. source-record-poll-rate. In addition, MM2 produces its own metrics under the kafka.connect.mirror metric group. Metrics are tagged with the following properties:

• target: alias of target cluster

• source: alias of source cluster

• topic: remote topic on target cluster

• partition: partition being replicated
  Metrics are tracked for each remote topic. The source cluster can be inferred from the topic name. For example, replicating topic1 from A->B will yield metrics like:

• target=B

• topic=A.topic1

• partition=1
  The following metrics are emitted:

MBean: kafka.connect.mirror:type=MirrorSourceConnector,target=([-.w]+),topic=([-.w]+),partition=([0-9]+)

record-count # number of records replicated source -> target
record-age-ms # age of records when they are replicated
record-age-ms-min
record-age-ms-max
record-age-ms-avg
replication-latecny-ms # time it takes records to propagate source->target
replication-latency-ms-min
replication-latency-ms-max
replication-latency-ms-avg
byte-rate # average number of bytes/sec in replicated records

MBean: kafka.connect.mirror:type=MirrorCheckpointConnector,source=([-.w]+),target=([-.w]+)

checkpoint-latency-ms   # time it takes to replicate consumer offsets
checkpoint-latency-ms-min
checkpoint-latency-ms-max
checkpoint-latency-ms-avg

These metrics do not discern between created-at and log-append timestamps.
