> Handle Kinesis-side resharding in Kinesis streaming consumer
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-3231
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3231
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Kinesis Connector, Streaming Connectors
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai
> Assignee: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai
> Fix For: 1.1.0
>
>
> A big difference between Kinesis shards and Kafka partitions is that Kinesis
> users can choose to "merge" and "split" shards at any time for adjustable
> stream throughput capacity. This article explains this quite clearly:
> https://brandur.org/kinesis-by-example.
> This will break the static shard-to-task mapping implemented in the basic
> version of the Kinesis consumer
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3229). The static shard-to-task
> mapping is done in a simple round-robin-like distribution which can be
> locally determined at each Flink consumer task (Flink Kafka consumer does
> this too).
> To handle Kinesis resharding, we will need some way to let the Flink consumer
> tasks coordinate which shards they are currently handling, and allow the
> tasks to ask the coordinator for a shards reassignment when the task finds
> out it has found a closed shard at runtime (shards will be closed by Kinesis
> when it is merged and split).
> We need a centralized coordinator state store which is visible to all Flink
> consumer tasks. Tasks can use this state store to locally determine what
> shards it can be reassigned. Amazon KCL uses a DynamoDB table for the
> coordination, but as described in
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3211, we unfortunately can't use
> KCL for the implementation of the consumer if we want to leverage Flink's
> checkpointing mechanics. For our own implementation, Zookeeper can be used
> for this state store, but that means it would require the user to set up ZK
> to work.
> Since this feature introduces extensive work, it is opened as a separate
> sub-task from the basic implementation
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3229.
