> Key: KAFKA-6020
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6020
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: consumer
> Reporter: Pavel Micka
> Labels: needs-kip
>
> Currently, it is not possible to filter messages on broker side. Filtering
> messages on broker side is convenient for filter with very low selectivity
> (one message in few thousands). In my case it means to transfer several GB of
> data to consumer, throw it away, take one message and do it again...
> While I understand that filtering by message body is not feasible (for
> performance reasons), I propose to filter just by message key prefix. This
> can be achieved even without any deserialization, as the prefix to be matched
> can be passed as an array (hence the broker would do just array prefix
> compare).
