Hi Kishore
Recent days,I try to install pinot cluster according to the online document.
But I have some questions in my installation process.
First, I don't understand the role of kafka component role in whole pinot cluster.
Second, when I try to StartServer paramenter to start pinot server, how do I know if the server is realtime or offline?
Could you give me some guide, thank you.

A server isn't realtime or offline, its the segments that are either realtime or offline

I see. Thank you for your reply.
@vmarchaud I don't know the kafka role in whole pinot architecture. I couldn't find the illustration in online document.

Kafka is optional, thats only if you want to use realtime segments

@Kishore G if only read local config file or data file, so there is a lot of pressure on my controller server such as disk space.
