Terence Yim commented on TWILL-147: ----------------------------------- When Twill started using Kafka, Kafka was on version 0.7-0.8, which doesn't have a pure java api yet. Things have changed and the general principle is to minimize dependencies if it doesn't involve reinventing a lot of code. Regarding the log appender library, I think the best way to address it is to make it somewhat pluggable so that user doesn't need to use the one that comes from Twill. > Allow using external Kafka server for log collection > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TWILL-147 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TWILL-147 > Project: Apache Twill > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: api, core > Reporter: Terence Yim > > Show allow user to use any Kafka server for log collection, not necessarily > starting an embedded one in the AM. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
