I would like to know about error/exception handling best-practices when working with native kafka consumer clients (Java, Python). Most of the error-handling questions on stack-overflow seem to be in the context of spring-boot's retry-handler. I would like to know if its possible to attach such error-handlers and retry-templates to non-spring managed consumers or when working with native consumer clients. I tried searching over stack-overflow and looks like there is no satisfactory answer. It would be helpful in general, if there is some general guidance on error-handling (when to transiently retry and recover) practices when working with native clients.
