Database Support

Guys,
         In my previous project, I used ZK with file system for storing the configuration information using the std. config file. Is it possible to store the config in a database using JDBC? 

Thanks,
-Uday.

Uday,
 If I understand correctly, you mean to say if the zookeeper conf file can be stored in database? 

As for now, it cannot. The code in ZK assumes that the conf is a file and can be read via opening a file.  It is possible to plugin the conf file so that JDBC can be used but that will require some work. 

Hope that helps
