--------------------------------
If you don't have bandwidth to get this done in 0.8.2, I will take it. Let me
know.

> Key: KAFKA-1357

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: replication
> Reporter: Jay Bae

>
> Kafka in the cloud should be resilient to zone(rack in data center) outage.
> ElasticSearch is already doing replica assignment based on rack info, where
> replicas are not assigned to instances in the same rack.
> We need this feature to make Kafka in AWS resilient in any zone outage. So
> far, I am doing manually get the broker information, write manual partition
> assignment json string and do manual assignment for the critical data source.
> It would be great rack-awareness replica assignment can be done automatically
> if the broker configuration has a rack info.
