             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.
