SAMZA-1271: Guarantee predictable, deterministic order for operator initialization and finalization Currently, the order of initialization of operators in the Samza high level API is not deterministic. The non-determinism arises from two primary causes: - No fixed order of iteration for all subscribed `OperatorSpec`s for a given `MessageStream` - No fixed order of iteration for all the `OperatorImpl`s in the `OperatorImplGraph` We aim to provide the following 2 guarantees in this patch: For any 2 operators A, B in the graph, if B consumes the output of A: - A is initialized before B is initialized - A is finalized only after B is finalized You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/vjagadish1989/samza deterministic_order Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/samza/pull/211.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #211 ---- commit 95dde24595702748ac4d448fb528a3c3bb8c43da Author: vjagadish1989 <jvenk...@linkedin.com> Date: 2017-06-02T07:29:03Z Guarantee deterministic order for operator initialization and finalization ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
