----------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Grant Henke)
> Implement "Auto Topic Creation" client side and remove support from Broker
> side
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-2410
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2410
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: clients, core
> Affects Versions: 0.8.2.1
> Reporter: Grant Henke
> Priority: Major
>
> Auto topic creation on the broker has caused pain in the past; And today it
> still causes unusual error handling requirements on the client side, added
> complexity in the broker, mixed responsibility of the TopicMetadataRequest,
> and limits configuration of the option to be cluster wide. In the future
> having it broker side will also make features such as authorization very
> difficult.
> There have been discussions in the past of implementing this feature client
> side.
> [example|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-689?focusedCommentId=13548746&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13548746]
> This Jira is to track that discussion and implementation once the necessary
> protocol support exists: KAFKA-2229
