Using Qlik Replicate with Confluent Kafka as target

In Confluent Kafka target, there is an option for using format Avro instead of JSON and also option for Compress the file using gzip versus Snappy. What is your recommendation for these options?

Hi,
Kafka with Confluent schema registry has both Avro and JSON message formats in the replicate GUI.
We also have snappy and gzip compressions for both the types.
What are you looking for exactly?

Thanks,
Madhavi

I am looking for recommendation to use Avro or JSON and also whether I should compress using Snappy or gzip. Or if there is a combination that is work best when my source is SAP and my target is Confluent Kafka.
