Hi everyone,

I’m using Apache Kafka with Spring and encountering an issue where I see the following error message:

Disconnecting from node 1 due to request timeout  
It seems like this error indicates a disconnection from the Kafka broker due to a request timeout. I’m looking to implement a mechanism to automatically handle disconnections and retry connecting to the Kafka cluster.

Could anyone provide advice or examples on how to configure Kafka with Spring to automatically attempt reconnection after a disconnection? I’m particularly interested in understanding how to set up retry logic or any relevant configurations that can help manage such scenarios more effectively.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!
