> Kafka client version in Samza is currently at 2.0.1. This client is now at
> 2.7.0 with enhancements, bug fixes and security patches.
> We should upgrade Samza to the latest version to benefit from this.
> The problem is Scala 2.11 support was droppd in 2.5.0.
> Therefore we should upgrade to 2.4.1 to make it a quick easy upgrade and gain
> many of the benefits since the current Samza Kafka client version of 2.0.1.
