Jay Kreps resolved KAFKA-1050.
------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
I think both of these are done on other tickets.
> Support for "no data loss" mode

> I'd love to use Apache Kafka, but for my application data loss is not
> acceptable. Even at the expense of availability (i.e. I need C not A in CAP).
> I think there are two things that I need to change to get a quorum model:
> 1) Make sure I set request.required.acks to 2 (for a 3 node cluster) or 3
> (for a 5 node cluster) on every request, so that I can only write if a quorum
> is active.
> 2) Prevent the behaviour where a non-ISR can become the leader if all ISRs
> die. I think this is as easy as tweaking
> core/src/main/scala/kafka/controller/PartitionLeaderSelector.scala,
> essentially to throw an exception around line 64 in the "data loss" case.
> I haven't yet implemented / tested this. I'd love to get some input from the
> Kafka-experts on whether my plan is:
> (a) correct - will this work?
> (b) complete - have I missed any cases?
> (c) recommended - is this a terrible idea :-)
> Thanks for any pointers!
