Hi there. I'm working on a 0.8 version of the protocol for nodejs. And when thing that I'm not clear from the docs:
"The client will likely need to maintain a connection to multiple brokers, as data is partitioned and the clients will need to talk to the server that has their data" Ok, so far so good. Once I have the initial metadata request I would know which broker has each partition. But then looking at the BNF for producerequest: RequiredAcks Timeout [TopicName [Partition MessageSetSize MessageSet]] What happens if a client send a message to a topic and partition that is not on the broker the message was sent to? What happens in case the client does not specify a partition and the topic was created with multiple partitions?
