----------------------------------
Summary: Introduction around queue-like consumer group behaviour
is misleading
Key: KAFKA-2996
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2996
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: website
Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
Reporter: Jakub Korab
Priority: Minor
The documentation reads "If all the consumer instances have the same consumer
group, then this works just like a traditional queue balancing load over the
consumers. "
This is then followed up two paragraphs later by explaining how multiple
consumers on the same partition work like a queue with exclusive consumers, and
that partitioning is required for parallelism. This section needs some
refactoring to make it read better - as it stand it's confusing/misleading.
