---------------------------------------
[~ewencp]I don't think I'll be able to work on this anymore, hope it gets
picked up soon by someone else!
> Consider adding version information into rocksDB storage format
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: KAFKA-3522
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3522
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: streams
> Reporter: Guozhang Wang
> Assignee: Ishita Mandhan
> Labels: architecture
>
> Kafka Streams does not introduce any modifications to the data format in the
> underlying Kafka protocol, but it does use RocksDB for persistent state
> storage, and currently its data format is fixed and hard-coded. We want to
> consider the evolution path in the future we we change the data format, and
> hence having some version info stored along with the storage file / directory
> would be useful.
> And this information could be even out of the storage file; for example, we
> can just use a small "version indicator" file in the rocksdb directory for
> this purposes. Thoughts? [~enothereska] [~jkreps]
