Hi,
Kafka provides kafka-reassign-partitions.sh tool to allow the operator to generate a new partition distribution, usually helpful to add or remove brokers from the cluster. The tool works great but it shuffles all the partitions over the target brokers, which on big clusters generates a lot of data movement. Is there a tool around which generates a new partitions distribution minimizing the number of changes? Something written in bash would be the best of life, suitable to run on vanilla K8s Kafka images too. regards, fabio pardi
