JobManager instances. ZooKeeper is a separate service from Flink,
+ which provides highly reliable distributed coordination via leader
election and light-weight consistent state storage [23].
+
+### [Apache Flume](https://flume.apache.org/)
+ - Flume is a distributed, reliable, and available service for efficiently
collecting, aggregating, and moving large amounts
+ of log data. It has a simple and flexible architecture based on streaming
data flows. It is robust and fault tolerant
+ with tunable reliability mechanisms and many failover and recovery

feature [5].
+
+### [Apache Fluo](https://fluo.apache.org/)
+ - Apache Fluo is a distributed processing system that lets users make
incremental updates to large data sets.
+ - Apache Fluo is built on Apache Accumulo which uses Apache Zookeeper for
consensus [31,37].
+
+### [Apache Griffin](https://griffin.apache.org/)
+ - Big Data Quality Solution For Batch and Streaming.
+ - Griffin uses Zookeeper for coordination to provide redundancy and high
availability of Kafka [31,36].
+
+### [Apache Hadoop](http://hadoop.apache.org/)
+ - The Apache Hadoop software library is a framework that allows for the
distributed processing of large data sets across
+ clusters of computers using simple programming models. It is designed to
scale up from single servers to thousands of machines,
+ each offering local computation and storage. Rather than rely on hardware
to deliver high-availability,
+ the library itself is designed to detect and handle failures at the
application layer, so delivering a highly-available service on top of a cluster
of computers, each of which may be prone to failures.
+ - The implementation of automatic HDFS failover relies on ZooKeeper for the
following things:
+ - **Failure detection** - each of the NameNode machines in the cluster
maintains a persistent session in ZooKeeper.
+ If the machine crashes, the ZooKeeper session will expire, notifying the
other NameNode that a failover should be triggered.
+ - **Active NameNode election** - ZooKeeper provides a simple mechanism to
exclusively elect a node as active. If the current active NameNode crashes,
+ another node may take a special exclusive lock in ZooKeeper indicating
that it should become the next active.
+ - The ZKFailoverController (ZKFC) is a new component which is a ZooKeeper
client which also monitors and manages the state of the NameNode.
+ Each of the machines which runs a NameNode also runs a ZKFC, and that ZKFC
is responsible for:
+ - **Health monitoring** - the ZKFC pings its local NameNode on a periodic
basis with a health-check command.
+ So long as the NameNode responds in a timely fashion with a healthy
status, the ZKFC considers the node healthy.
+ If the node has crashed, frozen, or otherwise entered an unhealthy
state, the health monitor will mark it as unhealthy.
+ - **ZooKeeper session management** - when the local NameNode is healthy,
the ZKFC holds a session open in ZooKeeper.
+ If the local NameNode is active, it also holds a special “lock” znode.
This lock uses ZooKeeper’s support for “ephemeral” nodes;
+ if the session expires, the lock node will be automatically deleted.
+ - **ZooKeeper-based election** - if the local NameNode is healthy, and the
ZKFC sees that no other node currently holds the lock znode,
+ it will itself try to acquire the lock. If it succeeds, then it has “won
the election”, and is responsible for running a failover to make its local
NameNode active.
+ The failover process is similar to the manual failover described above:
first, the previous active is fenced if necessary,
+ and then the local NameNode transitions to active state [7].
+
+### [Apache HBase](https://hbase.apache.org/)
+ - HBase is the Hadoop database. It's an open-source, distributed,
column-oriented store model.
+ - HBase uses ZooKeeper for master election, server lease management,
bootstrapping, and coordination between servers.
+ A distributed Apache HBase installation depends on a running ZooKeeper
cluster. All participating nodes and clients
+ need to be able to access the running ZooKeeper ensemble [8].
+ - As you can see, ZooKeeper is a fundamental part of HBase. All operations
that require coordination, such as Regions
+ assignment, Master-Failover, replication, and snapshots, are built on
ZooKeeper [20].
+
+### [Apache Helix](http://helix.apache.org/)
+ - A cluster management framework for partitioned and replicated distributed
resources.
+ - We need a distributed store to maintain the state of the cluster and a
notification system to notify if there is any change in the cluster state.
+ Helix uses Apache ZooKeeper to achieve this functionality [21].
+ Zookeeper provides:
+ - A way to represent PERSISTENT state which remains until its deleted
+ - A way to represent TRANSIENT/EPHEMERAL state which vanishes when the
process that created the state dies
+ - A notification mechanism when there is a change in PERSISTENT and
EPHEMERAL state
+
+### [Apache Hive](https://hive.apache.org)
+ - The Apache Hive data warehouse software facilitates reading, writing, and
managing large datasets residing in distributed
+ storage using SQL. Structure can be projected onto data already in
storage. A command line tool and JDBC driver are provided to connect users to
Hive.
+ - Hive has been using ZooKeeper as distributed lock manager to support
concurrency in HiveServer2 [25,26].
+
+### [Apache Ignite](https://ignite.apache.org/)
+ - Ignite is a memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing
platform for
+ transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads delivering in-memory
speeds at petabyte scale
+ - Apache Ignite discovery mechanism goes with a ZooKeeper implementations
which allows scaling Ignite clusters to 100s and 1000s of nodes
+ preserving linear scalability and performance [31,34].
+
+### [Apache James Mailbox](http://james.apache.org/mailbox/)
+ - The Apache James Mailbox is a library providing a flexible Mailbox storage
accessible by mail protocols
+ (IMAP4, POP3, SMTP,...) and other protocols.
+ - Uses Zookeeper and Curator Framework for generating distributed unique
ID's [31].
+
+### [Apache Kafka](https://kafka.apache.org/)
+ - Kafka is a distributed publish/subscribe messaging system
+ - Apache Kafka relies on ZooKeeper for the following things:
+ - **Controller election**
+ The controller is one of the most important broking entity in a Kafka
ecosystem, and it also has the responsibility
+ to maintain the leader-follower relationship across all the partitions. If
a node by some reason is shutting down,
+ it’s the controller’s responsibility to tell all the replicas to act as
partition leaders in order to fulfill the
+ duties of the partition leaders on the node that is about to fail. So,
whenever a node shuts down, a new controller
+ can be elected and it can also be made sure that at any given time, there
is only one controller and all the follower nodes have agreed on that.
+ - **Configuration Of Topics**
+ The configuration regarding all the topics including the list of existing
topics, the number of partitions for each topic,
+ the location of all the replicas, list of configuration overrides for all
topics and which node is the preferred leader, etc.
+ - **Access control lists**
+ Access control lists or ACLs for all the topics are also maintained within
Zookeeper.
+ - **Membership of the cluster**
+ Zookeeper also maintains a list of all the brokers that are functioning at
any given moment and are a part of the cluster [9].
+
+### [Apache Kylin](http://kylin.apache.org/)
+ - Apache Kylin is an open source Distributed Analytics Engine designed to
provide SQL interface and multi-dimensional analysis (OLAP) on Hadoop/Spark
supporting extremely large datasets,
+ original contributed from eBay Inc.
+ - Apache Kylin leverages Zookeeper for job coordination [31,33].
+
+### [Apache Mesos](http://mesos.apache.org/)
+ - Apache Mesos abstracts CPU, memory, storage, and other compute resources
away from machines (physical or virtual),
+ enabling fault-tolerant and elastic distributed systems to easily be built
and run effectively.
+ - Mesos has a high-availability mode that uses multiple Mesos masters: one
active master (called the leader or leading master)
+ and several backups in case it fails. The masters elect the leader, with
Apache ZooKeeper both coordinating the election
+ and handling leader detection by masters, agents, and scheduler drivers
[10].
+
+### [Apache Oozie](https://oozie.apache.org)
+ - Oozie is a workflow scheduler system to manage Apache Hadoop jobs.
+ - the Oozie servers use it for coordinating access to the database and
communicating with each other. In order to have full HA,
+ there should be at least 3 ZooKeeper servers [29].
+
+### [Apache Pulsar](https://pulsar.apache.org)
+ - Apache Pulsar is an open-source distributed pub-sub messaging system
originally created at Yahoo and now part of the Apache Software Foundation
+ - Pulsar uses Apache Zookeeper for metadata storage, cluster configuration,
and coordination. In a Pulsar instance:
+ - A configuration store quorum stores configuration for tenants,
namespaces, and other entities that need to be globally consistent.
+ - Each cluster has its own local ZooKeeper ensemble that stores
cluster-specific configuration and coordination such as ownership metadata,
+ broker load reports, BookKeeper ledger metadata, and more [24].
+
+### [Apache Solr](https://lucene.apache.org/solr/)
+ - Solr is the popular, blazing-fast, open source enterprise search platform
built on Apache Lucene.
+ - In the "Cloud" edition (v4.x and up) of enterprise search engine Apache
Solr, ZooKeeper is used for configuration,
+ leader election and more [12,13].
+
+### [Apache Spark](https://spark.apache.org/)
+ - Apache Spark is a unified analytics engine for large-scale data processing.
+ - Utilizing ZooKeeper to provide leader election and some state storage, you
can launch multiple Masters in your cluster connected to the same ZooKeeper
instance.
+ One will be elected “leader” and the others will remain in standby mode.
If the current leader dies, another Master will be elected,
+ recover the old Master’s state, and then resume scheduling [14].
+
+### [Apache Storm](http://storm.apache.org)
+ - Apache Storm is a free and open source distributed realtime computation
system. Apache Storm makes it easy to reliably
+ process unbounded streams of data, doing for realtime processing what
