As what Sijie suggested in the other email thread, I started this email thread for discussing the stream operation primitives.
The stream operations that I am aware of that DL supports are * Open a distributedlog stream * Delete a distributedlog stream * List all the distributedlog streams under a namespace * Seal a distributedlog stream * Truncate a distributedlog stream I am looking for a more filesystem-like API. for example, * Get the status/attributes of a stream (like stat in filesystem) * Rename a stream * Symlink a stream Another operations that I can think of might be useful. * Split/Fork a stream (it can be useful for dynamic data partitioning) * Merge/Concat streams The above operations are based on my knowledge about DL. Feel free to add more. - Gerrit
