Using kettle library for master election using distributed locking

2019-06-05

I uploaded a simple library that abstracts the use of distributed locking to elect a master among group of workers at a specified time interval. It’s called kettle. You can find the source code here. We’ve been using this library mostly on these two recurring use case patterns: Consuming a dynamodbstreams endpoint across multiple containers running in Kubernetes. In this case, the master tracks the dynamic addition/removal of shards of a specific endpoint and distributes those shards to the other worker containers.
