I'm wondering if this concept applies to Storm and if there's a way to do this.
I'd like to limit the machines that certain spouts or bolts run on. There are
many reasons for this. But for one let's assume that I have a bolt that is just
a proxy for some legacy service. I want to monitor that service by way of the
bolt and use it in my topology.
Another way of looking at it is that I want to have a topology that spans
different "classes" of machines.
Let's say I have 3 classes of machines: small, medium, and large. Some
topologies are limited to only one class of machines however some other
topologies need to span two or more classes of machines.
How can I do this in storm?
Thanks
Jeff
