Question

Answer 1

I tried following Soon Chee Loong's answer with Kafka 0.9.0.1 but had to make one change. ZKStringSerializer is now private. To create ZkUtils I used the following API (it creates a ZkClient internally):

ZkUtils.apply(
    "zookeeper1:port1,zookeeper2:port2",
    sessionTimeoutMs,
    connectionTimeoutMs,
    false)
