Workarounds

  1. 90% success Use partition/session key for ordering: messages with same key go to same partition
  2. 85% success Add sequence numbers and handle reordering at application level

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Sort messages on consumer side 72% fail

    Complex, requires buffering

  2. Use single consumer only 75% fail

    No parallelism
