[VOTE] Add REST Server to Apache Kafka

[Harsha Chintalapani]

Hi All,
   We are proposing to have a REST Server as part of  Apache Kafka
to provide producer/consumer/admin APIs. We Strongly believe having
REST server functionality with Apache Kafka will help a lot of users.
Here is the KIP that Mani Kumar wrote
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-80:+Kafka+Rest+Server.
There is a discussion thread in dev list that had differing opinions on
whether to include REST server in Apache Kafka or not. You can read more
about that in this thread
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/kafka-dev/201610.mbox/%3ccamvt_aymqeudm39znsxgktpdde46sowmqhsxop-+jmbcuv7...@mail.gmail.com%3E

  This is a VOTE thread to check interest in the community for
adding REST Server implementation in Apache Kafka.

Thanks,
Harsha

I think the REST server for Kafka that already exists is quite good and
getting contributions. Moving this into the core project doesn't solve a
problem that I see.

Re: [VOTE] Add REST Server to Apache Kafka

As an end-user, while I like the idea in theory, in practice I don't think
it's a good idea just yet.

Certainly, it'd be useful, enabling things like
https://github.com/Landoop/kafka-topics-ui to work without needing anything
outside of Kafka core.

But there are already enough things in the existing Kafka core that feel a
little half-baked, especially on the ops side... there's been a few threads
lately on the users mailing list where users have asked about functionality
that seems like it should be standard and all proffered solutions have
seemed a bit hacky.

Similarly, while I understand the argument that having a solid HTTP
endpoint would obviate the need for other language bindings, I'm not sure
that's what would happen. From a speed perspective, I'd often rather use
the native bindings in my language of choice, even if it's unofficial and
may be lagging behind on features. So this doesn't feel that compelling to
me.

I'd rather the Kafka community focus on making Kafka rock-solid at what it
does, particularly having the existing CLI ops tooling and docs be really
solid before trying to add fairly major new pieces to the project.

Plus I think it's very beneficial for the Kafka community for Confluent to
have a strong business model--they provide many contributions to core that
most of us benefit from for free. Keeping a few things like the REST
interface under their umbrella gives them free marketing exposure while
still allowing the rest of us access to their tooling as free/open-source.

This is an http access to core Kafka. This is very much needed as part of 
Apache Kafka under ASF governance model.  This would be great for the community 
instead of duplicated and splintered efforts that may spring up.

Re: [VOTE] Add REST Server to Apache Kafka

[Harsha Chintalapani]

I am not able to link the whole thread on REST server discussion thread
from dev list properly.
But if you go here
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/kafka-dev/201610.mbox/thread
look for subject  "[DISCUSS] KIP-80: Kafka REST Server"

Re: [VOTE] Add REST Server to Apache Kafka

[Jan Filipiak]

So happy to see this reply.
I do think the same, actually makes it way harder to properly batch up 
records on http, as kafka core would need to know how to split your payload.

It would help people do the wrong thing IMO

And you also still need to find the correct broker, for each http call, 
wich is also hard, when programming against the http api

Re: [VOTE] Add REST Server to Apache Kafka

I don't think the reasons from the KIP are good enough:

1 -- That other tools have a REST interface isn't a reason Kafka needs one.
Further, "it is useful" is not a reason; *why* is it useful?
2 -- Why does a REST server *need* to be immediately available to every use
that downloads Kafka?
3 -- Maintaining compatibility between Kafka and a REST proxy see seems
like a burden that should be on the maintainers of the REST proxy, not on
the core team.

I'm going to change my vote to a -1, great points made by all.

(Although I would want to have another discussion around a "management"
REST endpoint for Kafka, I think there would be value in that)

-1 for http kafka client in core

Although a read only management interface, perhaps via http, sounds kinda
useful for things like health checks as mentioned.

Kafka's development model is a good fit for critical path and
well-established APIs. It doesn't work as well for add-ons that need to
rapidly evolve. Merging communities with different development pace and
models rarely ends well - I think the REST Proxy will benefit from being a
separate project.
