Singletons are guaranteed by the underlying JVM then, making the SingletonSpiFactory (and SpiFactory itself) unnecessary. The question at hand is: What is the interface for us? To me it was more like I do: ```scala SpiLoader.instanceOf[MessageProducer]("openwhisk.KafkaProducer") ``` and get an instance of the `KafkaProducer`. Of course that is non-sensical in that Producer and Consumer should be off the same implementation, so I think you're approach is valid. I wonder though if we can generalize then, that each `Spi` needs to be a `Provider`, that is: A factory object providing methods to actually generate the instances. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
