Chinmay Soman commented on SAMZA-353:
-------------------------------------

Regarding broadcast stream (using unchecked SystemStreamPartitionGrouper):
=========================
If the use case for a broadcast stream is to provide means of communication 
between the different tasks, does the MessageChooser have to do anything 
special ? Like prioritize the broadcast stream over the others ? (Or maybe I 
haven't understood MessageChooser in detail).

bq. Impose an ordering on offsets, and always start consuming from the lowest 
offset that's required for all TaskNames within a single container for a given 
SystemStreamPartition. The container can then filter any input messages that a 
given StreamTask has already processed in cases where another task in the 
container might be farther behind.

I'm a little confused here. If we're maintaining just one offset (the smallest) 
- how can the container 'filter' messages for a given StreamTask that are 
already processed ? How does this avoid reading duplicate input messages ?

> Support assigning the same SSP to multiple tasknames

> Post SAMZA-123, it is possible to add the same SSP to multiple tasknames, 
> although currently we check for this and error out if this is done.  We 
> should think through the implications of having the same SSP appear in 
> multiple tasknames and support this if it makes sense.  
> This could be used as a broadcast stream that's either added by Samza itself 
> to each taskname, or individual groupers could do this as makes sense.  Right 
> now the container maintains a map of SSP to TaskInstance and delivers the ssp 
> to that task instance.  With this change, we'd need to change the map to SSP 
> to Set[TaskInstance] and deliver the message to each TI in the set.
