Hi, We normally run 1 broker per 1 physical server, and up to around 1000 partitions per broker (although that depends on the specific machine the broker is on and specific configuration).
In order to enjoy replication, we recommend a minimum of 3 brokers in the cluster, to support 3 replicas per partition. Hope this helps?
