Summary: StreamJoined name is not used for processor names Key: KAFKA-18191 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18191 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: streams Reporter: A. Sophie Blee-Goldman The StreamJoined#as API allows you to set a name for a stream-stream join operator. The intention is to allow one to name the stores, and therefore changelogs, resulting in an upgradeable topology, but it is a bit strange that the name isn't also used for the processors themselves. Of course, the stream-stream join is a bit of an edge case compared to, say, a count or filter operator, where the operator is a 1:1 mapping to the processor node and the user can name the processor exactly, because the stream-stream join operator actually results in multiple processors which each need a unique name. However, we could at least use the specified StreamJoined name as the basis for the resulting processor names, to avoid getting stuck with names like "KSTREAM-JOINTHIS-0000000004" and "KSTREAM-WINDOWED-0000000003" which are difficult to interpret and make it hard to read a topology Note that there is some existing precedent for this: for example with cogroups, the individual processors inherit the base name of the cogroup's aggregate operator name. For example this code {code:java} grouped1 .cogroup((k, v, a) -> a + v) // wrapped 1 .cogroup(grouped2, (k, v, a) -> a + v) // wrapped 2 .aggregate(() -> "", Named.as("myName"), Materialized.as("store")) {code} produces processors with these names: "myName-cogroup-agg-0", "myName-cogroup-agg-1", "myName-cogroup-merge" -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
