Can you give some examples of what "content based" means?
Thanks,
Dave

Subject: Question regarding enhancement for Apache Kafka
Hello,
I Janagan Sivagnanasundaram from Sri Lanka, and pursuing final year
undergraduate studies under software engineering at University of Colombo
School of Computing, Sri Lanka. As a part of the fulfillment of the degree we
have to do a final year software engineering project with 3 members. So our
project we thought of doing an enhancement for current apache kafka framework,
and the proposed enhancement is changing apache kafka from topic based to
content based, which will provide many features.
Our idea for the above proposed method is to leave the kafka as it is without
modifying and build a middleware on top of the kafka framework, which gets the
content based subscription as the input and passes to the kafka module as set
of topics, and finally kafka will process as it is
(i.e: content is divided into set of topics)
Is the above proposed way is possible to implement? Or is there any alternative
best way to solve the problem?
More importantly, our whole project should not exceed 6-8 months of period.
We have to finish the project before Dec, 2016
It will be great if you all can propose a suitable way of implement such thing,
I hope that implementing such thing would be a great contribution to kafka
community.
Thank you
Regards,
S.Janagan
