[jira] [Updated] (SAMZA-839) KafkaSystemProducer should use the same partitioning hash function as Kafka's producer

["Kishore Nallan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-839?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Kishore Nallan updated SAMZA-839:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
Samza's KafkaSystemProducer class generates the partition key using:

{{abs(envelope.getPartitionKey.hashCode()) % numPartitions}}

However, Kafka's producer generates the partition key this way:

{{Utils.abs(Utils.murmur2(record.key())) % numPartitions}}

This makes it difficult for me to join 2 data sources on a common key when one source is produced by Samza and the other by a default Kafka producer.

As a work-around, I have to modify the upstream job (that uses the default kafka producer) to write with an explicit partition key using Samza's hashing logic.
