Khurrum Nasim created DL-64: ------------------------------- Summary: DL reader should handle and retry errors infinitely Key: DL-64 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DL-64 Project: DistributedLog Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Khurrum Nasim Assignee: Khurrum Nasim
The DL reader right now handles and retries most of exceptions, but still throws exceptions when it can't handle. It is good for applications that requirements explicit controls on handling exceptions. However it is a bit annoying for most of customers, as everyone would end up writing the logic to catch exception and re-create readers. It would be nice that DL can provide some infinitely (with backoff policy) retryable reader that automatically catch the exceptions and re-create a new reader. It would simply the logic for writing source/spouts for stream computing jobs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
