> A sample use-case
> In our scenario we partition events by userid and then apply these to some
> kind of state machine, that modifies the actual state of a user. So events
> trigger state transitions. In order to avoid the need of loading user's state
> upon each event processed, we cache that. But if a user's partition is moved
> to another consumer and then back to the previous consumer we have stale
> caches and hell breaks loose. I guess the same kind of problem occurs in
> other scenarios like counting numbers by user, too.
