Hey David, what gets written to the changelog topic
The changelog gets the same value as the store, which is the serialized form of the key and value. The serdes for the store are configured with the properties: stores.store-name.key.serde stores.store-name.msg.serde If I want to compress the changelog topic, do I enable that from the > producer? Yes. When you specify the changelog for your store, you specify it in terms of a SystemStream (typically a Kafka topic). In the part of the config where you define the Kafka system, you can pass any Kafka producer config <http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#newproducerconfigs>. So to configure compression you should configure the following property. systems.system-name.producer.compression.type Hope this helps. -Jake On Wed, Aug 3, 2016 at 11:16 AM, David Yu <david...@optimizely.com> wrote: > I'm trying to understand what gets written to the changelog topic.
