Arvind Prabhakar commented on FLUME-1502:
-----------------------------------------
@Brock, thanks for the design document. On the point of File Channel, I do feel
that it is important to have that support to ensure that we do not put
excessive strain on memory for the host process, and that we do not lose events
in the case of host process failure.
Another point to consider is whether the source would be any different from a
regular source when running in embedded mode. For example, does it make sense
to have embedded agent with a network source like Avro working on it? For
instance, it may make sense to have no source support, but a direct
pass-through for the client API that directly talks with the channel in
question.
