Arvind Kandhare created KAFKA-3867: -------------------------------------- Summary: KIP-64 -Allow underlying distributed filesystem to take over replication depending on configuration Key: KAFKA-3867 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3867 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: log Reporter: Arvind Kandhare Assignee: Jay Kreps
Distributed data stores can be vastly improved by integrating with Kafka. Some of these improvements are: They can participate easily in the whole Kafka ecosystem Data ingesting speeds can be improved Distributed data stores come with their own replication. Kafka replication is a duplication of functionality for them.Kafka should defer replication to underlying file system if the configuration mandates it. In the newly added configuration a flush to the filesystem should consider a signal that the message is replicated. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
