Matthias J. Sax commented on KAFKA-3184: ---------------------------------------- Works for me. But we can also discuss on the PR? > Add Checkpoint for In-memory State Store > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-3184 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3184 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: streams > Reporter: Guozhang Wang > Assignee: Nikolay Izhikov > Priority: Major > Labels: user-experience > > Currently Kafka Streams does not make a checkpoint of the persistent state > store upon committing, which would be expensive since it is "stopping the > world" and write on disks: for example, RocksDB would require you to copy the > file directory to make a copy naively. > However, for in-memory stores checkpointing maybe doable in an asynchronous > manner hence it can be done quickly. And the benefit of having intermediate > checkpoint is to avoid restoring from scratch if standby tasks are not > present. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
