------------------------------------
Summary: Global threshold on data retention size
Key: KAFKA-1489
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1489
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: log
Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
Reporter: Andras Sereny
Assignee: Jay Kreps
Currently, Kafka has per topic settings to control the size of one single log
(log.retention.bytes). With lots of topics of different volume and as they grow
in number, it could become tedious to maintain topic level settings applying to
a single log.
Often, a chunk of disk space is dedicated to Kafka that hosts all logs stored,
so it'd make sense to have a configurable threshold to control how much space
*all* data in Kafka can take up.
