+== Sample 8
+
+This sample demonstrates the application with a Micrometer observation propagation from the producer to consumer over Apache Kafka broker.
+
+The configuration mostly rely on the Spring Boot auto-configuration for observability and Spring for Apache Kafka.
+In the `application.properties` we enable observation for the `KafkaTemplate` and `@KafkaListener` to have them both in the same trace id.
+The `KafkaTemplate` is configured for the `observation-topic` as a default topic.
+And the same property is used by `@KafkaListener` for its `topics` property.
+Then we configure consumer for required `group-id` and `offset-reset` as `earliest` to be able to consume the produced a bit earlier than the Kafka listener container start.
+
+In the `Sample08Application` we have a simple `@KafkaListener` POJO method to just log a `CosnumerRecord`.
+The `ProducerListener` is there for logging what was produced by the `KafkaTemplate`.
+And `ApplicationRunner` is to emit a data via `KafkaTemplate` when application is ready.
+
+When we run this application we can see in logs one message from producer and one from consumer and both those messages are correlated with the same trace id.
+
+The `Sample08ApplicationTests` starts an embedded Kafka broker and provides a `TestSpanHandler` bean for trace and span verifications.
+The single test in this class verifies that we have only two mentioned spans: one from the producer and one from the consumer.
+And that both those spans belong to the same trace id.

+#   Gradle start up script for POSIX generated by Gradle.
+#
+#   Important for running:
+#
+#   (1) You need a POSIX-compliant shell to run this script. If your /bin/sh is
+#       noncompliant, but you have some other compliant shell such as ksh or
+#       bash, then to run this script, type that shell name before the whole
+#       command line, like:
+#
+#           ksh Gradle
+#
+#       Busybox and similar reduced shells will NOT work, because this script
+#       requires all of these POSIX shell features:
+#         * functions;
+#         * expansions «$var», «${var}», «${var:-default}», «${var+SET}»,
+#           «${var#prefix}», «${var%suffix}», and «$( cmd )»;
+#         * compound commands having a testable exit status, especially «case»;
+#         * various built-in commands including «command», «set», and «ulimit».
+#
+#   Important for patching:
+#
+#   (2) This script targets any POSIX shell, so it avoids extensions provided
+#       by Bash, Ksh, etc; in particular arrays are avoided.
+#
+#       The "traditional" practice of packing multiple parameters into a
+#       space-separated string is a well documented source of bugs and security
+#       problems, so this is (mostly) avoided, by progressively accumulating
+#       options in "$@", and eventually passing that to Java.
+#
+#       Where the inherited environment variables (DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS, JAVA_OPTS,
+#       and GRADLE_OPTS) rely on word-splitting, this is performed explicitly;
+#       see the in-line comments for details.
+#
+#       There are tweaks for specific operating systems such as AIX, CygWin,
+#       Darwin, MinGW, and NonStop.
+#
+#   (3) This script is generated from the Groovy template
+#       https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/HEAD/platforms/jvm/plugins-application/src/main/resources/org/gradle/api/internal/plugins/unixStartScript.txt
