erjan commented 3 years ago

what do u mean by 'there are many other kafka certifications'? there is only 1 - this is from confluent. no other vendor is popular or has established certifications

ashishlahoti commented 3 years ago

@erjan You have answered your question :) there are other vendors who claims that they provide Kafka certification but they are not as popular or as established as confluent

"Message Key Producer can choose to send a key with message."

maybe typo but it should be "producer can choose to send msg with key" ?

thx u for the great guide , i m prepping for the ccdak now!

ashishlahoti commented 3 years ago

@erjan I have updated the statement in "Message Key" section. Feel free to comment if you see any other mistakes or typos. Thanks.

Both on Apache's and Confluent's documentation they use bootstrap-server to create a new topic. I seem to remember reading that the both work, but creating with zookeeper is deprecated. what would be the correct answer in the exam?

ashishlahoti commented 2 years ago

@BananaEgg You are right. Zookeeper is deprecated in the latest version of Kafka and it will be removed soon in upcoming versions. You should use bootstrap-server to create new topic. I have updated the Kafka CLI section of this post.

Correct answer is bootstrap-server.

@ashishlahoti, Does the certifications ask questions for latest versions of Kafka or they ask from a specific version?

Also, I have only seen 2-3 questions related to Kafka monitoring as they are more aligned with admin certification of Kafka. So should I read about the monitoring metrics as well?

ashishlahoti commented 2 years ago

@aditya81070 Hey Aditya, Certification asks questions for the latest version of Kafka.

These exam notes are for CCDAK (Confluent Certified Developer for Apache Kafka®). These are useful for you but yes, you need additional learning including monitoring metrics for CCAAK (Confluent Certified Administrator for Apache Kafka®)

do i need to study KAFKA CONNECT as well for the exam?

gulpinDev commented 1 year ago

are these notes still valid for 2023 CCDAK exams? great job, btw :)

OgradyJ commented 1 year ago

These notes are still great. Other than the above sample questions I'd recommend the following resource for more practice questions: https://www.examskit.com/confluent/ccdak/pdf I found their premium questions very helpful during my exam preparation.
