> Let's say a consuming segment is dropped (or reset), we will destroy the current consuming segment, and that will add a checkpoint to the source. The next consuming segment will skip the records within the dropped segment, and cause data loss. If you reset or drop a consuming segment, it is ok to destroy the consuming segment. It may cause a checkpoint at source. But your reset point should still pick up from where you actually "reset". Why would it skip the records within dropped segment ? I don't follow this part of your argument. Is it in the context of kafka like systems where the offsets are guaranteed to be simple monotonically increasing integers? Can you explain a bit? perhaps with kafka as a context? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
