             Summary: Garbage collect old consumer metadata entries
                 Key: KAFKA-559
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-559
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Jay Kreps


Many use cases involve tranient consumers. These consumers create entries under 
their consumer group in zk and maintain offsets there as well. There is 
currently no way to delete these entries. It would be good to have a tool that 
did something like
  bin/delete-obsolete-consumer-groups.sh [--topic t1] --since [date] 
--zookeeper [zk_connect]
This would scan through consumer group entries and delete any that had no 
offset update since the given date.
