Jiangjie Qin reassigned KAFKA-2076: ----------------------------------- Assignee: Jiangjie Qin > Add an API to new consumer to allow user get high watermark of partitions. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2076 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2076 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jiangjie Qin > Assignee: Jiangjie Qin > > We have a use case that user wants to know how far it is behind a particular > partition on startup. Currently in each fetch response, we have high > watermark for each partition, we only keep a global max-lag metric. It would > be better that we keep a record of high watermark per partition and update it > on each fetch response. We can add a new API to let user query the high > watermark. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
