In Redpanda, every partition replica is assigned to a CPU core on a broker. While Redpanda's default <<partition-replica-balancing,partition balancing>> monitors cluster-level events, such as the addition of new brokers or broker failure to balance partition assignments, it does not account for the distribution of partitions _within_ an individual broker.

Starting in this version of Redpanda, topic-aware intra-broker partition balancing allows for dynamically reassigning partitions within a broker. Redpanda prioritizes an even distribution of a topic's partition replicas across all cores in a broker. If a broker's core count changes, when the broker starts back up, Redpanda can check partition assignments across the broker's cores and reassign partitions, so that a balanced assignment is maintained across all cores. Redpanda can also check partition assignments when partitions are added to or removed from a broker, and rebalance the remaining partitions between cores.

NOTE: Decreasing the number of CPU cores in a running cluster requires that you enable the `node_local_core_assignment` feature flag.

To determine when to use intra-broker partition balancing, use the public metrics for CPU usage described in the xref:manage:monitoring.adoc#cpu-usage[Monitoring] guide.

Decreasing the number of CPU cores in a production cluster is not supported in this version of Redpanda. However, you can enable xref:manage:cluster-maintenance/cluster-balancing.adoc#intra-broker-partition-balancing[intra-broker partition balancing] to reduce CPU cores in a development cluster.
