    >> we have an internal project named zkpipe, it read Zookeeper snapshot/binlog and send it to a Kafka topic, our client could choose to rebuild the transaction or subscribe the changes. I believe it will better than hack Zookeeper itself. If you have interested, I could push it to github later.
    
    @flier This sounds interesting. I am sure there are users of ZooKeeper that could benefit from this, because ZooKeeper does not work out of back for such backup scenarios. If you are OK / allowed to open source this work I recommend put it on github.
