Summary: GetOffsetShell: retrieve offsets for all given topics and partitions with single request to the broker Key: KAFKA-5235 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5235 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: tools Reporter: Arseniy Tashoyan Fix For: 0.11.0.0 GetOffsetShell is implemented on old SimpleConsumer. It needs Zookeeper to retrieve metadata about topics and partitions. At present, GetOffsetShell does the following: - get metadata from Zookeeper - iterate over partitions - for each partition, connect to its leader broker and request offsets Instead, GetOffsetShell can use new KafkaConsumer and retrieve offsets by means of endOffsets(), beginningOffsets() and offsetsForTimes() methods. One request is sufficient for all topics and partitions. As far as GetOffsetShell is re-implemented with new KafkaConsumer API, it will not depend on obsolete API: SimpleConsumer, old producer API. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
