Michael Ernest created KAFKA-5114:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify meaning of logs in Introduction: Topics and Logs
Key: KAFKA-5114
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5114
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: documentation
Reporter: Michael Ernest
Priority: Minor
The term log is ambiguous in this section:
* To describe a partition as a 'structured commit log'
* To describe a topic as a partitioned log
Then there's this sentence under Distribution: "The partitions of the log are
distributed over the servers in the Kafka cluster with each server handling
data and requests for a share of the partitions"
In that last sentence, replacing 'log' with 'topic' would be clearer.
