ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-9610: --------------------------------------- GitHub user nielsbasjes opened a pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/6181 [FLINK-9610] [flink-connector-kafka-base] Add Kafka Partitioner that uses the hash of the provided key. ## What is the purpose of the change Add the simple feature of being able to route records into Kafka using a key based partitioning. ## Brief change log - Added the FlinkKeyHashPartitioner class with some tests. ## Verifying this change This change added tests and can be verified as follows: - Use this instead of the FlinkFixedPartitioner while instantiating the FlinkKafkaProducer. Also add an KeyedSerializationSchema implementation that returns the right key that is to be used. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): no - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: yes - The serializers: no - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): no - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: no - The S3 file system connector: no ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? yes - If yes, how is the feature documented?
