Hi all, not sure what to do next as weeks have gone by, guys. --CH -----Original Message----- From: ChienHsing Wu <chien...@opentext.com> Sent: Monday, January 14, 2019 9:13 AM To: dev@kafka.apache.org Subject: RE: [EXTERNAL] - Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-387: Fair Message Consumption Across Partitions in KafkaConsumer
Hi, I know everyone is busy. But I would appreciate someone letting me know what to do next. I started this effort back in last year early November... Thanks, CH -----Original Message----- From: ChienHsing Wu <chien...@opentext.com> Sent: Monday, January 07, 2019 9:24 AM To: dev@kafka.apache.org Subject: RE: [EXTERNAL] - Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-387: Fair Message Consumption Across Partitions in KafkaConsumer Hi guys, I am not sure what to do next in this KIP process. Could anyone please help/advise me on what to do next? Thanks, CH -----Original Message----- From: ChienHsing Wu <chien...@opentext.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 02, 2019 12:55 PM To: dev@kafka.apache.org Subject: RE: [EXTERNAL] - Re: [DISCUSS] KIP-387: Fair Message Consumption Across Partitions in KafkaConsumer Hi Colin, Setting max.partition.fetch.bytes was discussed in the ticket. It's not as desirable if the message size is highly variable. Also this decrease the efficiency of network communication. In the case you mentioned below where a consumer can get messages from A, B, C and D but the consumer currently only has messages from A, B and C, the proposed change will NOT wait until some messages from D arrives to start returning messages; it will just serve those from A, B and C. It will include those from D when they are available. That IS the current behavior. The proposed change does not impose a strict round robin pattern. The original KIP 41 discussed "Ensuring Fair Consumption", that means it originally intended to take that into account in the Consumer code, the proposed change takes the current algorithm closer to that goal, IMHO. I could implement that logic at the caller side but, that would mean each library user need to know the inner working of the consumer code and to implement the logic on their own. Though as a first timer here, I do appreciate the complexity and functionalities in the client library and feel that we'd be better off as a community to implement the logic in the library so the complexity is hidden from library users.

You can just set max.partition.fetch.bytes to a very small value. That will cause Kafka to fetch only one message from each partition. This will give you the round robin behavior you want. Alternately, if you don't want to change max.partition.fetch.bytes, you could do your own buffering to get round robin behavior. Keep a buffer of messages from partition A, B, C, and D and hold back the messages from A, B, and C until one from D arrives, so that the A B C D A B C D... etc. order always repeats. best, Colin On Wed, Dec 19, 2018, at 09:00, ChienHsing Wu wrote: > Looking back the email thread I think one of the comments from > Mayuresh was the question about needing KIP for this change or not as > the KafkaConsumer does not guarantee the end user any order, and so no > changes to the contracts to users. > > I entered KIP based on suggestions from the attached email when going > through code contribution process.
