Sink Batch/Stream Question

[satellite-no]

For the Kafka stream What does the egress: dynamic mean? I understand the batch and stream and in theory Dynamic swaps between them but how?

@pront any ideas on this one?

Hi @satellite-no, based on our internal definitions:

	// `#EgressMethod` specified how a component outputs events.
	//
	// * `batch` - one or more events at a time
	// * `dynamic` - can switch between batch and stream based on configuration.
	// * `expose` - exposes data, ex: prometheus_exporter sink
	// * `stream` - one event at a time
	#EgressMethod: "batch" | "dynamic" | "expose" | "stream"

These have not been revisited for quite a while. If have a specific question I can take a look.

Hey! I guess my question would be what configuration or lack of configuration would make it stream based. My goal would be to have it streaming data to kakfa clusters vs batching it. I want to make sure its acting how I expect.
