Initially, we will not support upgrading a cluster from legacy mode to KIP-500 mode. This is in keeping with the experimental nature of KIP-500 mode. A future KIP will describe and implement an upgrade process from legacy mode to KIP-500 mode.
Before being used in KIP-500 mode, the storage directories on a node must be formatted. This requirement prevents system administrators from accidentally enabling KIP-500 mode by simply making a configuration change. Requiring formatting also prevents mistakes, since Kafka no longer has to guess if an empty storage directory is a newly directory or one where a system error prevented any data from showing up.
Nodes
Currently, a ZooKeeper cluster must be deployed when running Kafka. This KIP will eliminate that requirement, as well as the requirement to configure the addresses of the zookeeper nodes on each broker.
Currently, any broker node can be elected as the controller. As part of this KIP, the active controller will instead be selected among a small potentially smaller pool of nodes specifically configured to act as controllers. Typically three or five nodes in the cluster will be selected to be controllers.
...
Note that as long as at least one of the provided controller addresses is valid, the broker will be able to learn about the current metadata quorum and start up. Once the broker is in contact with the metadata quorum, the quorum bootstrap addresses will not be needed. This makes it possible to reconfigure the metadata quorum over time. For example, if we start with a metadata quorum of host1, host2, host3, we could replace host3 with host4 without disrupting any of the brokers. Then we could roll the brokers to apply the new metadata quorum bootstrap configuration of host1, host2, host4 on each one.
Node IDs
Just like brokers, controller nodes will have non-negative integer node IDs. There will be a single ID space. In other words, no controller should share the same ID as a broker. Even when a broker and a controller are co-located in the same JVM, they must have different node IDs.
Automatic node ID assignment via ZooKeeper will no longer be supported in KIP-500 mode. Node IDs must be set in the configuration file for brokers and controllers.
Networking
We define a node here as a tuple consisting of a node ID and a process role. Roles are defined by the `process.roles` configuration. As explained above, in a co-located configuration, a single process may take both the "controller" and "broker" roles. The node ID for both of these roles will be defined by the `node.id` configuration. However, this is mainly for configuration convenience. Semantically, we view the co-located process as representing two distinct nodes. Each node has its own listeners and its own set of APIs which it exposes. The APIs exposed by a controller node will not be the same as those exposed by a broker node.
Automatic node ID assignment via ZooKeeper will no longer be supported in KIP-500 mode. Node IDs must be set in the configuration file.
Networking
Controller processes will listen on a separate Controller processes will listen on a separate endpoint from brokers. This will be true even when the broker and controller are co-located in the same JVM.
In a well-run Kafka deployment, controller ports, like ZooKeeper ports, should be firewalled off from clients. This will prevent clients from disrupting the cluster by flooding the controller ports with requests. In the realm of ACLs, this translates to controllers requiring CLUSTERACTION on CLUSTER for all operations. (KIP-590 describes how users' administrative requests will be forwarded to the controller quorum as needed.)
The only time when clients should contact a controller node directly is when they are debugging system issues. This is similar to ZooKeeper, where we have things like zk-shell, but only for debugging.
Note that controllers do not appear in the MetadataResponses given to clients.
Metadata
The Metadata Topic
As described in KIP-500, the controller will store its data in the internal __kafkacluster_metadata topic. This topic will contain a single partition which is managed by Raft, as described in KIP-595: A Raft Protocol for the Metadata Quorum.
...
Metadata changes need to be persisted to the __kafkacluster_metadata log before we apply them on the other nodes in the cluster. This means waiting for the metadata log's last stable offset to advance to the offset of the change. After that point, we are guaranteed not to lose the change as long as we uphold the Raft invariants.
...
However, this "future state" may never be committed. For example, the active controller might fail, truncating some of its future state. Therefore, the active controller must not make this future state "visible" to the rest of the cluster until it has been made persistent – that is, until it becomes current state. In the case of the __kafkacluster_metadata topic, the replication protocol itself neatly takes care of this for us. In the case of controller RPCs like AlterIsr, the controller handles this by not sending back a response until the designated change has been persisted.
...
The active controller makes changes to the metadata by appending records to the log. Each record has a null key, and this format for its value:
- an unsigned varint specifying the frame type (currently 0)
- an unsigned varint specifying the record type.
- an unsigned varint specifying the record version
- the payload in Kafka RPC format
For example, if we wanted to encode a TopicRecord, we might have 0 encoded as a varint, 1 encoded as a varint, followed by 0 as the record version, followed by the serialized topic data.
The frame type, record type, and version will typically only take one byte each, for a total header size overhead of two three bytes.

Broker Registration and State Management
Broker Heartbeats
Every distributed system needs a way of managing cluster membership. Prior to KIP-500, Kafka brokers registered ephemeral znodes in order to register themselves as part of the cluster. The Kafka controller passively consumed the registration information from Zookeeper.
In the post-KIP-500 world there is no ZooKeeper and no ephemeral znodes. Instead, each broker sends a BrokerHeartbeat request to the active controller every few seconds.
This heartbeat acts as a registration. However, the controller has a choice about whether to accept it. It will reject brokers whose metadata is too stale, or whose IDs have been claimed by another broker. It will also reject brokers that do not support the minimum feature level of all KIP-584 features that are enabled.
When the broker accepts the registration, it grants or renews a broker ID lease associating the broker process with its ID. Leases are time-bounded.
A broker cannot continue using a lease indefinitely after sending a single heartbeat. When brokers are rejected by the controller, or otherwise unable to renew their lease before it expires, they enter the "fenced" state.
Fencing
Brokers that don't have a broker ID lease are said to be "fenced." When a broker is fenced, it cannot process any client requests. This prevents brokers which are not receiving metadata updates or that are not receiving and processing them fast enough from causing issues to clients.
Brokers start up in the fenced state, and can leave this state only by sending a heartbeat to the active controller and getting back a response that tells them they can become active.
Brokers will re-enter the fenced state if they are unable to communicate with the active controller within registration.lease.timeout.ms.
Controlled Shutdown
In the pre-KIP-500 world, brokers triggered a controller shutdown by making an RPC to the controller. When the controller returned a successful result from this RPC, the broker knew that it could shut down.
In the post-KIP-500 world, controller shutdown is handled by the broker heartbeat system instead. In its periodic heartbeats, the broker asks the controller if it can transition into the SHUTDOWN state. This motivates the controller to move all of the leaders off of that broker. Once they are all moved, the controller responds to the heartbeat with a nextState of SHUTDOWN.
Broker ID Conflicts
Clearly, in a correctly managed cluster, there should be no broker ID conflicts. Each broker should be configured with a unique ID. However, we want the system to be robust against misconfigurations. Therefore, if there are two brokers that claim the same ID, the controller will choose only one and tell the other to fence itself.
When a broker first starts up, when it is in the INITIAL state, it will always "win" broker ID conflicts. However, once it is granted a lease, it transitions out of the INITIAL state. Thereafter, it may lose subsequent conflicts if its broker epoch is stale. (See KIP-380 for some background on broker epoch.) The reason for favoring new processes is to accommodate the common case where a process is killed with kill -9 and then restarted. We want it to be able to reclaim its old ID quickly in this case.
The Broker State Machine
This state machine ties together a few of the previous sections, such as broker registration and shutdown.

The Three Cluster Membership States
Currently, from the perspective of ZooKeeper, there are two states brokers can be in: registered, and not registered. When brokers are registered, other brokers can find their network endpoints in order to communicate with them. They are also part of the MetadataResponse communicated back to clients. When they are not registered, neither of those are true.
In the post-KIP-500 world, there will be three cluster membership states: unregistered, registered but fenced, and registered and active. Just like today, unregistered means that there is no registration information and no way to reach the broker. It is effectively not part of the cluster. In the two registered states, in contrast, contact information is available. However, in the "registered but fenced" state, the contact information might no longer be valid. For example, if a broker crashes and is not restarted, it will end up in "registered but fenced" state.
A broker only appears in MetadataResponse if it is in the "registered and active" state. If it is in the unreigstered state, or the "registered and fenced" state, it will not appear in MetadataResponse.
Essentially, registration relates to the permanent state of the cluster: the number of brokers we expect to have, what racks we expect them to be in, and so on. Fencing refers to the transitory state of the cluster: which brokers are currently available.
By separating the permanent state from the transitory state, we can more effectively handle transitory issues. For example, if you have a 3 node cluster that is undergoing rolling upgrade, one of the nodes might be down because it is rolling. However, we should still allow users to create new topics with replication factor 3. Currently, that is not possible, because the node's registration information gets wiped the moment its ZK registration goes away. With KIP-631, the registration remains, although the node becomes fenced. Another example is doing reassignment on a cluster where one or more nodes is down. Currently, when a node is down, all of its ZK registration information is gone. But we need this information in order to understand things like whether the replicas of a particular partition are well-balanced across racks.
Broker Registration
Every distributed system needs a way of managing cluster membership. Prior to KIP-500, Kafka brokers registered ephemeral znodes in order to register themselves as part of the cluster. The Kafka controller passively consumed the registration information from Zookeeper.
In the post-KIP-500 world there is no ZooKeeper and no ephemeral znodes. Instead, each broker registers itself with the active controller using a BrokerRegistrationRequest. The active controller assigns the broker a new broker epoch, based on the next available offset in the log. The new epoch is guaranteed to be higher than any previous epoch that has been used for the given broker id.
Each registration request contains a UUID which identifies the process which sent it. This ID is called the incarnation ID. This ensures that if the response to the registration request is lost, the broker can simply re-send the registration RPC and get the same successful result as before.
Registration requests also have information about the feature flags which the broker software supports. The controller will refuse to register brokers if they don't support the feature flags which are active in the cluster. In this case, the sysadmin needs to upgrade the broker software before it can be added to the cluster.
Handling Broker ID Conflicts
The controller only allows one broker process to be registered per broker ID. Of course, broker processes go away occasionally-- for example, if a broker crashes. A broker ID can be reused once a certain amount of time has gone past without any contact with the previous incarnation of the broker.
For the purpose of this section, handling a registration request or a broker heartbeat request are both considered forms of contact (even if the broker is fenced).
Broker Leases
When the broker first starts up, it doesn't want to be unfenced immediately. The reason is because it needs time to perform log recovery and some other startup tasks. It is good for the broker to be fenced during this time, so that clients do not try to contact it and fail. The broker indicates that it is not ready to be unfenced by setting ShouldFence = true in the heartbeats it sends out during this period.
Once the broker is ready to be unfenced, it starts setting ShouldFence = false in the heartbeats it sends out. This makes it eligible for unfencing. However, the controller will not actually unfence the broker unless its metadata is reasonably current. The controller determines this by examining the metadata offset in the heartbeat request.
As mentioned earlier, brokers which are fenced will not appear in MetadataResponses. So clients that have up-to-date metadata will not try to contact fenced brokers.
Broker leases are time-bounded. Once the period has elapsed, if the broker has not renewed its lease via a heartbeat, it will be fenced.
Controlled Shutdown
In the pre-KIP-500 world, brokers triggered a controller shutdown by making an RPC to the controller. When the controller returned a successful result from this RPC, the broker knew that it could shut down.
In the post-KIP-500 world, controller shutdown is handled by the broker heartbeat system instead. In its periodic heartbeats, the broker asks the controller if it can transition into the controlled shutdown state. It does this by setting the WantShutDown boolean. This motivates the controller to move all of the leaders off of that broker. Once they are all moved, the controller responds to the heartbeat with ShouldShutDown = true. At that point, the broker knows it's safe to begin the shutdown process proper.
The Broker State Machine
NOT_RUNNING
This is the state that the broker is in before it has started up. When the broker starts up, it transitions to STARTING.
STARTING
While the broker is in this state, it is trying to catch up with the latest metadata. It fetches the metadata from the controller quorum. Once it has finished catching up, it transitions to the RECOVERY state.
RECOVERY
The broker is in this state while it is starting the log manager. If the shutdown was clean, the broker will leave this state very quickly. If the shutdown was unclean, the broker will stay in this state until log recovery is complete.
Once log recovery is done, the broker will start listening on the socket server. It will then ask the controller to unfence it. Once the controller agrees, it will transition to the RUNNING state.
RUNNING
The broker is in this state when it's up and running.
PENDING_CONTROLLED_SHUTDOWN
The broker is in this state when it has received a SIGTERM and is trying to shut down.
SHUTTING_DOWN
The broker is in this state when controlled shutdown has finished and it is shutting down.
Changes in the Broker State Machine
The numeric constants exposed through the metrics API have not changed, and there are no new or removed states.
The main change in the broker state machine is that the RECOVERING_FROM_UNCLEAN_SHUTDOWN state has been renamed to RECOVERY. Also, unlike previously, the broker will always pass through RECOVERY (although it may only stay in this state for a very short amount of time).
Partition Reassignment
Just like the ZooKeeper-based controller, the quorum controller will implement the KIP-455 partition reassignment API. This API specifies both alter and list operations.
The alter operation specifies a partition, plus a target replica list. If the target replica list is a subset of the partition's current replica list, and the new replica list contains at least one member of the current ISR, then the reassignment can be completed immediately. In this case, the controller issues a PartitionChangeRecord changing the replica set and ISR (if appropriate).
On the other hand, if the new replica list has additional replicas, or specifies a subset of replicas that doesn't intersect with the current ISR, then we add the additional replicas to the replica list, and wait for the ISR to catch up.
So, for example, if the old replica list was [1, 2, 3], and the new list was [3, 4, 5], we would proceed as follows:
- change the replica list to [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], and set addingReplicas to [4, 5]
- Wait for an alterIsr which adds both broker 4 and 5
- Change the replica list to [3, 4, 5 ] and prune the ISR accordingly. Remove addingReplicas.
Just like with the ZooKeeper-based controller, the new controller stores reassignments as "hard state." Reassignments will continue even after a controller failover or broker shutdown and restart. Reassignment state appears in controller snapshots, as addingReplicas and removingReplicas.
Unlike the old controller, the quorum controller does not prevent topics that are undergoing reassignment from being deleted. If a topic is deleted, then any partition reassignments that it had are terminated.
Typically, reassignments which require ISR changes are completed by a leader adding some new replicas, via the alterIsr RPC. (Note that another possible way for a reassignment to be completed is via a broker being added to a partition ISR during unfencing).
When a broker makes an alterIsr change that completes a reassignment, the resulting ISR will be different than requested. For example, if the leader is 1, and the current ISR is 1, 2, 3, and the target replica set is 1, 2, 4, when the leader tries to change the ISR to 1, 2, 3, 4, the controller will change it to 1, 2, 4 instead, completing the reassignment. Since the alterIsr response returns the actual ISR which was actually applied, the leader will apply this new ISR instead.
If the new ISR would does not contain the leader which made the alterIsr call, the controller returns FENCED_LEADER_EPOCH. This will notify the broker that it should wait until it can replay the latest partition change from the log. That partition change record will make this broker a follower rather than a leader.
Public Interfaces
meta.properties
When a storage directory is in use by a cluster running in kip-500 mode, it will have a new version of the meta.properties file. Since the current version is 0, the new version will be 1. Just as in version 0, meta.properties will continue to be a Java Properties file. This essentially means that it is a plain text file where each line has the format key=value.
In version 0 of meta.properties, the cluster.id field is optional. In contrast, in version 1 it is mandatory.
In version 0 of meta.properties, the cluster.id field is serialized in hexadecimal. In contrast, in version 1 it is serialized in base64.
Version 1 of meta.properties replaces the broker.id field with node.id.
For servers running in kip-500 mode, the `meta.properties` file must be present in every log directory. The process will raise an error during startup if if either the meta.properties file does not exist or if the node.id found does not match what the value from the configuration file.
Here is an example of a version 1 meta.properties file:

kafka-metadata-shell.sh
The Kafka Metadata shell is a new command which allows users to interactively examine the metadata stored in a KIP-500 cluster.
It can read the metadata from the controllers directly, by connecting to them, or from a metadata snapshot on disk. In the former case, the quorum voters must be specified by passing the --controllers flag; in the latter case, the snapshot file should be specified via --snapshot.

The metadata tool works by replaying the log and storing the state into in-memory nodes. These nodes are presented in a fashion similar to filesystem directories. For browsing the nodes, several commands are supported:
Code Block |

There will be a new error code, DUPLICATE_BROKER_REGISTRATION, that the active controller will return when a broker tries to register with an ID that is currently in use.
INVALID_CLUSTER_ID
There will be a new error code, INVALID_CLUSTER_ID, that the controller will return if the broker tries to register with the wrong cluster ID.
AdminClient
There will be a new AdminClient RPC, unregisterBroker.

RPCs
Obsoleting the Metadata Propagation RPCs
As discussed earlier, the new controller will use FetchRequest to fetch metadata from the active controller. The details of how Raft fetching will work are spelled out in KIP-595: A Raft Protocol for the Metadata Quorum.
Since we propagate the metadata via Raft, we will no longer need to send out LeaderAndIsrRequest, UpdateMetadataRequest, and StopReplicaRequest. These requests will be sent out only when we're in legacy mode, not when we're in KIP-500 mode. Eventually we will add some support for these requests to the new controller, in order to support rolling upgrade from a pre-KIP-500 release. However, for the purpose of this KIP, the new controller will not use these requests.
Obsoleting the Controlled Shutdown RPC
The broker heartbeat mechanism replaces the controlled shutdown RPC. Therefore, we will not need to support the this RPC any more in the controller-- except for compatibility during upgrades, which will be described further in a follow-on KIP.
Topic Identifiers
This KIP builds on top of the work done in KIP-516 to improve how partitions are tracked.
Because each topic is identified by a unique topic UUID, we can implement topic deletion with a single record, RemoveTopicRecord. Upon replaying this record, each broker will delete the associated topic if it is present.
Of course, some brokers may be down when the topic is deleted. In fact, some brokers may never see the RemoveTopicRecord. This record may get collapsed into one of the periodic metadata snapshots. If this happens, the record will be reflected in the snapshot through the absence of a broker record, not its presence. Therefore, during the startup process, brokers must compare the log directories that they have with the ones contained in the latest metadata. The appropriate time to do this is at the start of the RECOVERY phase. At this point, the broker has the latest metadata.

The controller will wait to unfence a broker until it sends a heartbeat where ShouldFence is false and CurrentMetadataOffset is caught up.
If the heartbeat request has ShouldShutDown set, the controller will try to move all the leaders off of the broker.
The controller will set ControlledShutdownOk if the broker is cleared to execute a controlled shutdown. In other words, if it has no leaderships.
The controller will return NOT_CONTROLLER if it is not active. Brokers will always return NOT_CONTROLLER for these RPCs.

The LeaseStartTimeMs is expected to be the broker's 'System.currentTimeMillis()' at the point of the request. The active controller will add its lease period to this in order to compute the LeaseEndTimeMs.
The controller will wait to unfence a broker until it has sent at least one heartbeat where that broker's currentState is active. So a typical transition will look like this:
- broker sends a BrokerHeartbeatRequest with currentState = fenced, targetState = active. controller response with nextState = active
- broker sends a BrokerHeartbeatRequest with currentState = active, targetState = active. controller response with nextState = active
- controller unfences the broker
The second step informs the controller that the broker has received its response to the first step. In order to speed this process along, the broker will send the second heartbeat immediately after receiving the first, rather than waiting for the heartbeat timeout.
As always with enums, the UNKNOWN state is used only to translate values that our software is too old to understand.
The controller will return NOT_CONTROLLER if it is not active. Brokers will always return NOT_CONTROLLER for these RPCs.
