[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-8766) Allow a custom offset policy for Kafka Streams applications

Patrik Kleindl created KAFKA-8766:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow a custom offset policy for Kafka Streams applications 
                 Key: KAFKA-8766
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8766
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: streams
            Reporter: Patrik Kleindl


Currently when starting a new streams application (= new consumer group) you can only choose between starting from the beginning of all topics or only processing newly arriving records.

To start processing at any give point in the past (e.g. only processing data of the last month) the application has to be started (so the consumer group exists), stopped, the offsets reset and then restarted.

It would be helpful if this could be passed in with the help of some kind of "offset reset strategy" which could be provided by the user.
