@Bill: I think a filter predicate should be part of user code. And even if we want to add something like this, I would prefer to do it in a separate KIP.
@James: I would love to avoid a second rolling bounce. But from my understanding it would not be possible. The purpose of the second rolling bounce is indeed to switch from version 2 to 3. It also has a second purpose, to switch from the old store to the new store (this happens after the last instance bounces a second time). The problem with one round of rolling bounces is, that it's unclear when to which from version 2 to version 3. The StreamsPartitionsAssignor is stateless by design, and thus, the information which version it should use must be passed in from externally -- and we want to use the StreamsConfig to pass in this information. During upgrade, all new instanced have no information about the progress of the upgrade (ie, how many other instanced got upgrades already). Therefore, it's not safe for them to send a version 3 subscription. The leader also has this limited view on the world and can only send version 2 assignments back. Thus, for the 1.2 upgrade, I don't think we can simplify the upgrade. We did consider to change the metadata to make later upgrades (ie, from 1.2 to 1.x) simpler though (for the case we change the metadata or storage format again -- as long as we don't change it, a single rolling bounce is sufficient), by encoding "used version" and "supported version". This would allow the leader to switch to the new version earlier and without a second rebalance: leader would receive "used version == old" and "supported version = old/new" -- as long as at least one instance sends a "supported version = old" leader sends old version assignment back. However, encoding both version would allow that the leader can send a new version assignment back, right after the first round or rebalance finished (all instances send "supported version = new"). However, there are still two issues with this: 1) if we switch to the new format right after the last instance bounced, the new stores might not be ready to be used -- this could lead to "downtime" as store must be restored before processing can resume. 2) Assume an instance fails and is restarted again. At this point, the instance will still have "upgrade mode" enabled and thus sends the old protocol data. However, it would be desirable to never fall back to the old protocol after the switch to the new protocol. The second issue is minor and I guess if users set-up the instance properly it could be avoided. However, the first issue would prevent "zero downtime" upgrades. Having said this, if we consider that we might change the metadata protocol only if a future release, encoding both used and supported version might be an advantage in the future and we could consider to add this information in 1.2 release to prepare for this. Btw: monitoring the log, is also only required to give the instances enough time to prepare the stores in new format. If you would do the second rolling bounce before this, it would still work -- however, you might see app "downtime" as the new store must be fully restored before processing can resume. Does this make sense? -Matthias On 3/9/18 11:36 AM, James Cheng wrote: > Matthias, > > For all the upgrade paths, is it possible to get rid of the 2nd rolling > bounce? > > For the in-place upgrade, it seems like primary difference between the 1st > rolling bounce and the 2nd rolling bounce is to decide whether to send > Subscription Version 2 or Subscription Version 3.
