Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-1778:
--------------------------------
[~anigam], yes, you will need to configure multiple (e.g., 2 or 3) brokers
eligible to be the controller in this approach. In this approach, the
controller is guaranteed to be those eligible brokers. This seems a bit better
for use case (b) since it allows one to completely isolate the controller from
the other brokers that take produce/consumer load. In your proposal, the
controller may still be on a non-preferred broker.
