Improvement: Support rewind by time ! My scenarios as follow: A program read record from kafka and process then write to a dir in HDFS like /hive/year=xxxx/month=xx/day=xx/hour=10 . If the program goes down . I can restart it , so it read from last offset . But what if the program was config with wrong params , so I need remove dir hour=10 and reconfig my program and I need to find the offset where hour=10 start , but now I can't do this. And there are many scenarios like this. so , can we add a time partition , so we can rewind by time ? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
