P.S. this is not actually the zookeeper design I would submit to any competition :)
I’ve gone different routes in addressing the zookeeper short fall. This one is relatively easy, impactful and isolated for the right developer. Personally, with fewer scale and isolation limits, by the far the best thing I’ve done is remove almost all of our zk recipes and custom stuff and use Apache curator and replace our stuff as well as improve and expand on things using their large stable of well behaving recipes. I don’t think raw zookeeper is good for a project of more than a few people at most. But I wouldn’t toss that out there, it’s a much larger undertaking, no one is going to bite on that in passing.
