Hi Amit,
This is from the broker config section of the very good documentation on the
kafka web site: https://kafka.apache.org/0100/documentation.html#brokerconfigs
log.segment.bytes: The maximum size of a single log file (default 1GB)
log.retention.bytes: The maximum size of the log before del
For log.retention.bytes :
A size-based retention policy for logs. Segments are pruned from the log
unless the remaining segments drop below log.retention.bytes
This config is per partition.
For log.segment.bytes :
The maximum size of a log segment file. When this size is reached a new log
segment
