Are there plans to move consumer group coordination off of Zk as well? And if
so:-- what's the approximate planned release for that?-- and what dependencies
on Zk will be left in Kafka after that?
thanks!Marina

server?
There are a couple of advantages. First, scalability. Writes to Kafka are
cheaper than writes to ZK. Kafka-based offset storage is going to be able
to handle significantly more consumers (and scale out as needed since
writes are spread across all partitions in the offsets topic). Second, once
you move offsets *and* consumer group coordination off of ZK, then clients
don't need access to ZK at all.
