-----------------------------------
Summary: Add Kafka partitioner that uses the key to partition by
Key: FLINK-9610
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9610
Project: Flink
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Kafka Connector
Reporter: Niels Basjes
Assignee: Niels Basjes
The kafka connector package only contains the
FlinkFixedPartitioner implementation of the FlinkKafkaPartitioner.
The most common usecase I have seen it the need to spread the records across
the kafka partitions while keeping all messages with the same key together.
I'll put up a pull request with a very simple implementation that should make
this a lot easier for others to use and extend.
