> Hi,
> We have recently studied the problem of load balancing in Storm [1].
> In particular, we focused on what happens when the key distribution of the 
> stream is skewed when using key grouping.
> We developed a new stream partitioning scheme (which we call Partial Key 
> Grouping). It achieves better load balancing than key grouping while being 
> more scalable than shuffle grouping in terms of memory.
> In the paper we show a number of mining algorithms that are easy to implement 
> with partial key grouping, and whose performance can benefit from it. We 
> think that it might also be useful for a larger class of algorithms.
> We don't have experience in Clojure, however partial key grouping is very 
> easy to implement: it requires just a few lines of code in Java when 
> implemented as a custom grouping in Storm [2].
> We believe it should be very easy to port from Java.
> For all these reasons, we believe it will be a nice addition to the standard 
> groupings available in Storm. If the community thinks it's a good idea, we 
> will be happy to offer support in the porting.
