-----------------------------------

             Summary: Consider making suppression node names independent of 
topologically numbered names.
                 Key: KAFKA-7393
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7393
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: streams
            Reporter: John Roesler


See [https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/5567#discussion_r214188984] (please 
keep the discussion on this Jira ticket).

There is an opportunity to use a slightly different naming strategy for 
suppression nodes so that they can be moved around the topology without 
upsetting other nodes' names.

The main downside is that it might be confusing to have a separate naming 
strategy for just this one kind of node.

Then again, this could create important opportunities for topology-compatible 
optimizations.

 

At a higher design/implementation cost, but a lower ongoing complexity, we 
could consider this naming approach for all node types.
