...

A new configuration will be added: errors.dead.letter.deadletterqueuequeue.topic.name. When set, this configuration indicates the default exception handler implementation to build a Dead letter queue record during the error handling.

...

This proposal is to:

  1. Add a new attribute "deadLetterQueueRecord" getter and setter to configure dead letter queue records in the DeserializationHandlerResponseDeserializationExceptionHandler, ProductionExceptionHandlerResponse and ProcessExceptionHandlerResponse (KIP-1033) enumsProductionExceptionHandler and ProcessExceptionHandler.
  2. Add a new attribute public static final String ERRORS_DEADLETTERQUEUEDEAD_LETTER_QUEUE_TOPIC_NAME_CONFIG = "errors.deadletterqueuedead.letter.queue.topic.name".
  3. Change the existing exception handler to produce a DeadLetterQueue record if the parameter errors.dead.letter.deadletterqueuequeue.topic.name is set.
  4. If the DeadLetterQueue record can not be sent to Apache Kafka, the exception would be sent to the Kafka Streams uncaughtExceptionHandler.

...

The DLQ topic name is set through the configuration ERRORS_DEAD_LETTER_DEADLETTERQUEUEQUEUE_TOPIC_NAME_CONFIG = " errors.dead.deadletterqueueletter.queue.topic.name". Users can override the default behavior by implementing custom exception handlers to implement a different DLQ topic strategy if required.

...

Changes:

  • Adding the errors.dead.letter.deadletterqueuequeue.topic.name configuration. This configuration is only modifying the behavior of the out of the box exceptions handlers and would have no effect if a custom exception handlers is implemented, for example:
    • if errors.dead.letter.deadletterqueuequeue.topic.name=null (default), then no records are sent to any dead letter queue
    • if errors.deadletterqueuedead.letter.queue.topic.name is set, exceptions happening during processing, production or deserialization will result in the raw source messages that trigger the topology to be send to the DLQ topic. The processing might or might not continue depending of the configuration of the processing.exception.handler, default.production.exception.handler and default.deserialization.exception.handler configurations
Code Block
languagejava
public static final String ERRORS_DEADLETTERQUEUEDEAD_LETTER_QUEUE_TOPIC_NAME_CONFIG = "errors.deadletterqueuedead.letter.queue.topic.name";

.define(ERRORS_DEAD_LETTER_DEADLETTERQUEUEQUEUE_TOPIC_NAME_CONFIG,
       Type.STRING,
       null, /* default */
       Importance.HIGHMEDIUM,
       ERRORS_DEAD_LETTER_DEADLETTERQUEUEQUEUE_TOPIC_NAME_DOC)


If the user implement implements a custom exception handler, it is up to the custom handler to build DLQ records to send, in this case, the the errors.dead.letter.deadletterqueuequeue.topic.name configuration has no impact.

Code Block
languagejava
    @Override
    public ProcessingHandlerResponseResponse handlehandleError(final ErrorHandlerContext context, final Record<?, ?> record, final Exception exception) {
        return ProcessingHandlerResponse.CONTINUE

                        new ProducerRecord<>("app-dlq", "Hello".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8), "World".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)));

                ));
    }

return ProcessingExceptionHandler.Response.resume(records);

ProductionExceptionHandler.java

Changes:

  • Adding a Response nested class,that contains a Result indicating whether to continue processing, fail, or retry and the list of records to be sent to the dead letter queue topic
  • Deprecating the handler() and handlerSerializationException() methods and adding two new methods: handlerError() and handleSerializationException(). The return type is the Response
  • Deprecating the ProductionExceptionHandlerResponse enum and create a new Result enum. The result enum contains the 3 fields RESUME, FAIL and RETRY and a deprecated method to convert the old enum to the new one 
  • As the ErrorHandlerContext does not provide the sourceKey/Value in the handle method to limit the memory impact, the Dead Letter Queue record would only contains metadata. handleSerializationException is not impacted.

RecordContext.java

Changes:

  • Adding the public ProducerRecord<bytebyte[] , sourceRawKey and byte[] > deadLetterQueueRecord; attribute in the ProductionExceptionHandlerResponseAs the ErrorHandlerContext does not provide the sourceKey/Value in the handle method to limit the memory impact, the Dead Letter Queue record would only contains metadata. handleSerializationException is not impacted.sourceRawValue in the RecordContext pointing to the source record data

  • Managing DeadLetterQueue directly in the DSL by extending the KStreams interface.
  • Providing no default implementation to build the Dead letter queue record and delegating this task to the user.
  • Only providing exception and metadata information in the default DLQ implementation.
  • Adding a new interface, that could be overloaded by the user, to build the DLQ records.
  • Adding dead letter queue records to the enum: problematic because the collection would be shared by all stream threads, leading to unnecessary concurrency and potential transaction issues.
