how to understand consumer and listener in spring kafka

Viewed 2371

I using spring kafka with multi-thread feature(ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory), I found 2 types of thread names like this: 1. #0-1-kafka-consumer-1 2. #0-1-kafka-listener-3

so how can I understand these 2 kinds of thread? what's the relationship among them? Thanks in advance!
