[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-2868) Kafka Channel partition topic by key

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2868?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15525966#comment-15525966 ] 

Tristan Stevens commented on FLUME-2868:
----------------------------------------

FLUME-2823 allows you to specify the key, but not the partition. We should do this in the channel and in the sink.

> Add the ability to partition a Kafka channel topic by key. Users can currently partition topics by key using a file/memory channel with a Kafka sink. Although this approach adds unnecessary latency and the Kafka sink drops Flume event headers, which can be undesirable.
