    Description

      Simple situation:

      0) We have service A which works with Kafka as client

      1) No connection to Kafka

      2) Service A accumulates messages for sending to Kafka, but still no connection to Kafka

      3) Then service A is crashed for some reason, for example, OOM or just server is dead

      4) How to recover accumulated messages?

      I think - it will be good to have some general code basement to persist service's outgoing messages to Kafka. For example, if service A is crashed, it can fetch messages from some local storage on startup and resend it to Kafka.
