Grant Henke commented on KAFKA-3472: ------------------------------------ I think the goal of sampling topic data could be done without adding another parameter to Mirrormaker, and without depending on having many partitions. I linked KAFKA-2670 which talks about adding a sampling rate to Mirrormaker. The discussion mentions using an interceptor to implement custom sampling. Would that work for your use case? > Allow MirrorMaker to copy selected partitions and choose target topic name > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-3472 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3472 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: tools > Affects Versions: 0.9.0.1 > Reporter: Hang Sun > Priority: Minor > Labels: mirror-maker > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > It would be nice if MirrorMaker can be used to copy only a few partitions > instead of all to a different topic. My use case is to sample a small > portion of production traffic in the pre-production environment for testing. > The pre-production environment is usually smaller and cannot handle the full > load from production. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
