--------------------------------------
Summary: KIP-64 -Allow underlying distributed filesystem to take
over replication depending on configuration
Key: KAFKA-3867
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3867
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: log
Reporter: Arvind Kandhare
Assignee: Jay Kreps
Distributed data stores can be vastly improved by integrating with Kafka. Some
of these improvements are:
They can participate easily in the whole Kafka ecosystem
Data ingesting speeds can be improved
Distributed data stores come with their own replication. Kafka replication is a
duplication of functionality for them.Kafka should defer replication to
underlying file system if the configuration mandates it.
In the newly added configuration a flush to the filesystem should consider a
signal that the message is replicated.
