### Choosing a `transactionalId`

The `transactionalId` allows Kafka to fence out zombie instances by rejecting writes from producers with the same `transactionalId`, allowing only writes from the most recently registered producer. To ensure EoS semantics in a stream processing application, it is important that the `transactionalId` is always the same for a given input topic and partition in the read-process-write cycle.
The `transactionalId` allows Kafka to fence out zombie instances by rejecting writes from producers with the same `transactionalId`, allowing only writes from the most recently registered producer. To ensure EoS in a stream processing application, it is important that the `transactionalId` is always the same for a given input topic and partition in the read-process-write cycle.

The simplest way to achieve this is to encode the topic and partition in the `transactionalId` itself such as the scheme: `"myapp-producer-" + topic + "-" + partition`.
