[jira] [Updated] (CRUNCH-611) Simplified Kafka Offset Management in HDFS

["Micah Whitacre (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Micah Whitacre updated CRUNCH-611:
----------------------------------
    Attachment: CRUNCH-611.patch

So this patch provides a basic API for reading/writing Kafka offsets.  It then also provides a simple implementation that reads/writes the values from HDFS.  In theory this then should make regularly schedule Crunch pipeline's easier to implement with regard to offset management.

I did add a few optional dependencies so hopefully these won't cause too bad of conflicts with the Hadoop stack.  We aren't having a problem on our cluster but didn't universally check.  We are also setting out classpath first and running through Oozie so that changes classpath ordering as well.

> With the KafkaSource the responsibility of offset management is the burden of the consumer.  With some simple APIs it is actually trivial to support read/storing these offsets in an HDFS directory as checkpoints for the source.
