Hi, Let's use this thread to discuss the above mentioned KIP. Here is the motivation for it: "Distributed data stores can be vastly improved by integrating with Kafka. Some of these improvements are:
1. They can participate easily in the whole Kafka ecosystem 2. 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." Do let me know your views on this. Thanks and regards, Arvind
