Konstantin Boudnik commented on IGNITE-1203:
--------------------------------------------

Actually, I don't feel anything about ZK. It's being bent out of the way it was 
initially made for, but I guess ppl just found more use-cases for it ;) It has 
limitations and it's a pain to manage a ZK cluster (and even using it on the 
client side, because of the awkward locking implementations they have); and its 
algorithm is splitbrain-prone. But if it works for some - I am not here to pass 
the judgment around ;)
And you said it right there:

bq. it's been a solid and stable technology whenever ... as long as the 
underlying network is reliable
TCP-IP isn't a reliable protocol. This is the mistaken assumption that many ppl 
make. For a dare consequences to them.

I am not on IRC or anything like that. And I want to stop hijacking this ticket 
for sideway discussion. If you want to reach out - just drop me an email to my 
apache address. Thanks!

> From their site:
> bq. ZooKeeper is a centralised service for maintaining configuration 
> information, naming, providing distributed synchronisation, and providing 
> group services. 
> It is used by Kafka, Hadoop Yarn, HBase and many other technologies as a 
> distributed service registry and discovery directory.
> It would be nice to support cluster discovery via ZK.
