Hi, Since KIP-31 and KIP-32 has passed. I would like to kick off the discussion on KIP-33, which propose to add a time based log index to Kafka.
Here is the KIP wiki link: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-33+-+Add+a+time+based+log+index A good amount of the KIP has been touched during the discussion on KIP-32. So I also put the link to KIP-32 here for reference. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-32+-+Add+timestamps+to+Kafka+message Thanks, Jiangjie (Becket) Qin
