Can you explain more about cluster kafka ? .
I found from internet that A Kafka cluster consists of one or more servers (Kafka brokers) running Kafka. Thats mean kafka cluster is actual server or cloud maybe ?.
is posibble to run 2 or more same brokers in same server ? , for example run 2 zookeeper and 2 kafka server at same time ?
Thank you

Hi! A cluster consists of multiple brokers, which normally run on individual servers for fault tolerance (if one server goes down, the others won't). While you could run multiple brokers (and zookeeper instances) on one servers, it actually wouldn't make much sense because if the server goes down, ALL brokers go down.
