[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-10892) Add Topology#connectSourceStoreAndTopic as a public method

["Daan Gerits (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Daan Gerits commented on KAFKA-10892:
-------------------------------------

I hijacked this issues to use it to use it as the ticket for [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-813%3A+Shareable+State+Stores]

It takes a slightly different approach than suggested in this ticket, but the outcome is the same.

> I want Topology#connectSourceStoreAndTopic.

> h3. Background
> I want to use a topic as a source topic for WindowStore because using WindowStore is suitable for the feature that I'm implementing.
>  The records stored in the topic are aggregated with a time window by another application. The size of the topic is over 10TB.
>  I want to use the topic as a source topic for WindowStore directly.
>  But, I cannot do so on the current interface. 
>  I need a redundant topic only for storing the records into WindowStore.
> If this API is public, I can use topics incoming from other applications (not only Kafka Streams applications) as source topics for any StateStore implementation without redundant changelog topics.
> Of course, I need to implement a processor for storing incoming records in such a case.
>  But I think it's not difficult.
> Please consider this.
