Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-1348:
----------------------------------

Hey Jay,

The cluster actually maintains the current set of brokers and their host/port 
info for all active brokers. So it is fully dynamic already--you can move 
brokers from host to host at will.

I think the problem you are describing is that you have to hard-code discovery 
urls in your config. Now obviously you will need some kind of discovery url no 
matter what, but if you have some central service for this then maybe pointing 
at that is more useful. I think the plug api I gave would work for that, no?

> Producer has a property 'broker.list' static configuration. I need a 
> requirement to be able to override this behavior such as Netflix Eureka 
> Discovery module. Let me contribute and please add this to 0.8.1.1 release.
