So currently if we want to bump the # of partitions, one needs to restart Kafka with a new server.properties file. Is there any way to make this dynamic?
Let's say that my load has increased 2x recently, it would be nice not to have to restart Kafka. By the way, the default partitioner has a bug in it in 0.6, the hash function can return a negative value and throws an exception. -- -- *Evan Chan* Senior Software Engineer | e...@ooyala.com | (650) 996-4600 www.ooyala.com | blog <http://www.ooyala.com/blog> | @ooyala<http://www.twitter.com/ooyala>
