Hi,
Currently MirrorMaker is usually run collocated with the target cluster.
This is all nice and good. But one big obstacle in this was
always that group coordination happened on the source cluster. So when
then network was congested, you sometimes loose group membership and
have to rebalance and all this.
So one big request from we would be the support of having coordination
cluster != source cluster.
I would generally say a LAN is better than a WAN for doing group
coordinaton and there is no reason we couldn't have a group consuming
topics from a different cluster and committing offsets to another one right?
Other than that. It feels like the KIP has too much features where many
of them are not really wanted and counter productive but I will just
wait and see how the discussion goes.
