Hey Joe, Can you fill in this KIP? The purpose of these KIPs is to give a full overview of the feature, how it will work, be implemented, the considerations involved, etc. There is only like one sentence on this which isn't enough for anyone to know what you are thinking.
Moving off of configs to something that I'm guessing would be Zookeeper-based (?) is a massive change so we really need to describe this in a way that can be widely circulated. I actually think this would be a good idea. But there are a ton of advantages to good old fashioned text files in terms of config management and change control. And trying to support both may or may not be better. -Jay On Wed, Jan 21, 2015 at 10:34 PM, Joe Stein <joe.st...@stealth.ly> wrote: > Created a KIP > > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-5+-+Broker+Configuration+Management > > JIRA https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1786 > > /******************************************* > Joe Stein > Founder, Principal Consultant > Big Data Open Source Security LLC > http://www.stealth.ly > Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> > ********************************************/ >
