I would like to use Zookeeper as the authoritative database backend for a Single Sign On application, due to its high availability features. I know this is not a traditional Zookeeper usage.
What will be my challenges and limitation in using Zookeeper in this context? Brainstorming, I came across the following, but is there anything I'm missing? Backups * use zktreedump * no incremental backup capability Database size * database must fit in heap memory All updates must pass through primary node * limit on update throughput I don't believe any of the challenges/limits disqualify Zookeeper for my use case, but I'm interested to know if their are others. Thanks! Jeff Bachtel
