Jens Kat commented on FLINK-3294:
---------------------------------

[~rmetzger] I've been looking into the Kafka09Fetcher and this one implements 
from AbstractFetcher: public void 
commitSpecificOffsetsToKafka(Map<KafkaTopicPartition, Long> offsets)

Using the consumer, however the 08Fetcher implements this using                 
zkHandler.writeOffsets(offsets)

It seems to me that the initial behavior already is in place? I'll look into it 
to get this working.

> Currently, the 0.8 consumer for Kafka is committing the offsets manually into 
> Zookeeper so that users can track the lag using external tools.
> The 0.8 consumer has a pluggable design, and this component is easily 
> pluggable.
> Since OffsetCommitRequest version=1 (supported in 0.8.2 or later), users can 
> choose between two offset commit modes:
> a) Let the broker commit into ZK (this is  what we are doing from the consumer
> b) Let the broker commit the offset into a special topic.
> By adding a different "OffsetHandler" backend, users can commit offsets from 
> the brokers (reducing the total number of ZK connections) or into the 
> broker's offset topic.
