------------------------------------
Summary: Improve messaging infrastructure in Helix
Key: HELIX-269
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HELIX-269
Project: Apache Helix
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Vinayak Borkar
Sending a message to various targets in Helix assumes that data sources can
only be EXTERNALVIEW or IDEALSTATES. As a result, sending a message to a target
is possible only if that target is associated with a resources in the system.
It would help to allow applications to use other data sources to "harvest"
targets for messages. For example, LIVEINSTANCES could be used as a data source
to send messages to instances regardless of the existence of resources.
