<li>Kafka server's <code>process.role</code> should be set to either
<code>broker</code> or <code>controller</code> but not both. Combined mode can
be used in development environments, but it should be avoided in critical
deployment environments.</li>
- <li>For redundancy, a Kafka cluster should use 3 or 5 controllers,
depending on factors like cost and the number of concurrent failures your
system should withstand without availability impact. In the rare case of a
partial network failure it is possible for the cluster metadata quorum to
become unavailable. This limitation will be addressed in a future release of
Kafka.</li>

depending on factors like cost and the number of concurrent failures your
system should withstand without availability impact. For the KRaft controller
cluster to withstand <code>N</code> concurrent failures the controller cluster
must include <code>2N + 1</code> controllers.</li>
<li>The Kafka controllers store all the metadata for the cluster in memory
and on disk. We believe that for a typical Kafka cluster 5GB of main memory and
5GB of disk space on the metadata log director is sufficient.</li>
