Otis Gospodnetic commented on KAFKA-369: ---------------------------------------- Interesting. Sounds like brokers act as "portals into the whole Kafka cluster", so to speak. I wasn't aware of these ZK issues. Just for my edification - are those issues specific to the ZK client that was used or how it was used in Kafka producer? > remove ZK dependency on producer > -------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-369 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-369 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: core > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Jun Rao > Assignee: Yang Ye > Fix For: 0.8 > > Attachments: kafka_369_v1.diff, kafka_369_v2.diff, kafka_369_v3.diff, > kafka_369_v4.diff, kafka_369_v5.diff, kafka_369_v6.diff, kafka_369_v7.diff, > kafka_369_v8.diff, kafka_369_v9.diff > > Original Estimate: 252h > Remaining Estimate: 252h > > Currently, the only place that ZK is actually used is in BrokerPartitionInfo. > We use ZK to get a list of brokers for making TopicMetadataRequest requests. > Instead, we can provide a list of brokers in the producer config directly. > That way, the producer client is no longer dependant on ZK. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
