Scribe style of handling events especially when there is a large event backlog
built-up
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FLUME-851
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-851
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Channel, Node
Affects Versions: NG alpha 1
Environment: All
Reporter: Praveen Ramachandra
Newer events are of much higher value to be delivered than old events that have
been accumulated.
Scribe does this very well and would like to incorporate it in flume-ng.
Currently we use a dirty hack to realize this important/critical feature. If
this is incorporated in the platform, users of flume-ng will benefit from this
immensly
