Hi all, I’d like to start the discussion for KIP-1357: Add broker side custom assignors for "streams" groups
KIP: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=430408758 JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-20683 Summary: The Streams Rebalance Protocol (KIP-1071) moves task assignment from the client to the broker, but unlike the classic protocol and KIP-848 consumer groups, it offers no way to plug in a custom assignor. This KIP closes that gap by making the existing streams task assignor interfaces public API and adding broker and group configurations so operators can load custom assignor implementations and select them per group by short name, with no client-side involvement. Please let me know your feedback Thanks, Gabriella Fu
