--------------------------------------
Summary: New consumer javadoc unclear on topic subscription vs
partition assignment
Key: KAFKA-3419
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3419
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: consumer
Reporter: Jason Gustafson
Assignee: Jason Gustafson
We've tried to use the concepts of "topic subscription" and "partition
assignment" to distinguish between the old "high-level" and "simple" use cases,
but the javadoc is not very clear about this (e.g. there is still a section
titled "Subscribing to Specific Partitions"). Additionally, the section on
consumer groups is a little hard to follow in regard to the notion of a group
subscription.
