Kafka Maven Dependencies
If you want to use the latest producer and consumer API then the correct Maven coordinates are:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId>
<artifactId>kafka-clients</artifactId>
<version>0.9.0.0</version>
</dependency>
See the API documentation for more.

What's the difference between the below two dependencies? Do i really need the first one to make a consumer or producer app?
<dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> <artifactId>kafka_2.9.2</artifactId> <version>0.8.2.1</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> <artifactId>kafka-clients</artifactId> <version>0.8.2.1</version> </dependency> </dependencies>
My Producer works fine with just the first one , but the consumer needs the second one.
I had thought the "kafka-clients" artifact would work for both producer and consumer. But looks like "kafka.consumer.Consumer" comes from the other dependency. Why is there a difference?
Also, why is the first artifact named as kafka_2.9.2? i.e why is a version identifier in the name?
