Subject: Re: Is MirrorMaker 2 horizontally scalable?
Hi Dmitri,
There's at least one issue with MirrorMaker 2 that impacts horizontal
scalability and has not yet been addressed:
https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fissues.apache.org%2Fjira%2Fbrowse%2FKAFKA-9981&data=04%7C01%7Cdpavlov%40perforce.com%7C53b6338153194b386f5408d9fd2abb2b%7C95b666d19a7549ab95a38969fbcdc08c%7C0%7C0%7C637819183008636777%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=EKpH5nmW6OljbRz8HSUlrSp8f6p%2FZBeRPV6GpEJlLcU%3D&reserved=0.
There is some work in progress to fix it (
https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcwiki.apache.org%2Fconfluence%2Fdisplay%2FKAFKA%2FKIP-710%253A%2BFull%2Bsupport%2Bfor%2Bdistributed%2Bmode%2Bin%2Bdedicated%2BMirrorMaker%2B2.0%2Bclusters&data=04%7C01%7Cdpavlov%40perforce.com%7C53b6338153194b386f5408d9fd2abb2b%7C95b666d19a7549ab95a38969fbcdc08c%7C0%7C0%7C637819183008636777%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=6jTfhFhh3shJaS%2BPTTs5NJhFZ8uEXQ%2B1vlQfePecE08%3D&reserved=0),
but the effort hasn't received much attention to date.
There may be other issues as well, but until KAFKA-9981 is resolved, running
MirrorMaker 2 in a multi-node cluster will be at best difficult and at worst,
impossible.
Cheers,
Chris
