The locality information refers to the + * whereabouts of the physical execution of a samza container. With this information, samza achieves (best effort) affinity + * i.e. place the container on the host in which it was running before. By doing this, stateful applications can minimize + * the bootstrap time of their state by leveraging the local copy.
