Eric Ulicny commented on NIFI-2835:
-----------------------------------

Hello Koji,
I believe you're correct in that the EventHubProcessor Host is most likely the 
way to go.  Should I forgo working on this in favor of the ConsumeAzureEventHub 
Processor?  Optionally we could store a map of partition, enqueue time.

> GetAzureEventHub processor should leverage partition offset to better handle 
> restarts

> The GetAzureEventHub processor utilizes the Azure client that consists of 
> receivers for each partition. The processor stores them in a map[1] that gets 
> cleared every time the processor is stopped[2]. These receivers have 
> partition offsets which keep track of which message it's currently on and 
> which it should receive next. So currently, when the processor is 
> stopped/restarted, any tracking of which message is next to be received is 
> lost.
> If instead of clearing the map each time, we hold onto the receivers, or kept 
> track of the partitionId/Offsets when stopping, (barring any relevant 
> configuration changes) the processor would restart exactly where it left off 
> with no loss of data.
> This would work very well with NIFI-2826.
