Hey Raja,

For 0.8, you have to implement OffsetManager interface on your own. The
updateOffsets will be called in application master every time when it get
updated offsets from each physical partition. And the offsets that you see
in the method is committed offset. So you can safely save these offsets
into either zookeeper(0.8.2 client has API to do that) or any other
datastore like DB or HDFS.  And also you have to implement the method
loadInitialOffsets to load back offset you want.

You are welcome to contribute a default implementation using buildin kafka
offset commit request API for OffsetManager!

Regards,
Siyuan
