             Summary: Support Even Distribution Of Tuples To A Non Power Of 2 Number Of Partitions
                 Key: APEXCORE-332
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-332
             Project: Apache Apex Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Timothy Farkas
            Priority: Minor


Currently partitions masks must be defined as a binary mask. As a result the number of partitions must be a power of 2, otherwise the distribution of tuples will be uneven. If we support the modulus operation instead of a binary mask, we could support an even distribution of tuples to a non-power of 2 number of partitions.
