Hi all, I would like to start a discussion thread on KIP-1071: Streams Rebalance Protocol. With this KIP, we aim to bring the principles laid down by KIP-848 to Kafka Streams, to make rebalances more reliable and scalable, and make Kafka Streams overall easier to deploy and operate. The KIP proposed moving the assignment logic to the broker, and introducing a dedicated group type and dedicated RPCs for Kafka Streams.
The KIP is here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1071%3A+Streams+Rebalance+Protocol This is joint work with Bruno Cadonna. Please take a look and let us know what you think. Best, Lucas
