             Summary: Store Kafka offsets with Kafka's consumer offset 
management api
                 Key: STORM-1015
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-1015
             Project: Apache Storm
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: storm-kafka
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0
            Reporter: Hang Sun
            Priority: Minor


Current Kafka spout stores the offsets (and some other states) inside ZK with 
its proprietary format. This does not work well with other Kafka offset 
monitoring tools such as Burrow, KafkaOffsetMonitor etc. In addition, the 
performance does not scale well compared with offsets managed by Kafka's 
built-in offset management api. I have added a new option for Kafka to store 
the same data using Kafka's built-in offset management capability. The change 
is completely backward compatible with the current ZK storage option. The 
feature can be turned on by a single configuration option. Hope this will help 
people who wants to explore the option of using Kafka's built-in offset 
management api.

-thanks
