----------------------------------
Summary: Gracefully handle timeout exceptions on Kafka Streams
Key: KAFKA-9274
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9274
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: streams
Reporter: Boyang Chen
Right now streams don't treat timeout exception as retriable in general by
throwing it to the application level. If not handled by the user, this would
kill the stream thread unfortunately.
In fact, timeouts happen mostly due to network issue or server side
unavailability. Hard failure on client seems to be an over-kill.
We would like to discuss what's the best practice to handle timeout exceptions
on Streams. The current state is still brainstorming and consolidate all the
cases that contain timeout exception within this ticket.
