Kafka Broker vs Topic

Himalay Majumdar

A topic usually resides within the broker (server process) and has multiple partitions, but can it span across multiple brokers or nodes (machines)?

i.e, lets say a topic is divided into two partitions, partition-1 and partition-2. Can partition-1 belong to broker-1 and partition-2 of the same topic belong to a different broker-2 or a different node altogether?

Yes, different partitions of a topic can be stored in multiple machines. But, a single partition has to be stored entirely in one machine.
