People talk about Zookeeper as a negative, but in a quorum it's been one of the most stable and reliable pieces of software I've deployed, despite being a bit frustrating to set up / configure. Netflix's Exhibitor[1] is an indispensable addition to it. Also, once you're on the Big Data™ train, a lot of things like to plug into Zookeeper, so it becomes more of a convenience. Kafka, and presumably DL, are at their most useful when you're pushing the limits of NIC and/or HDD performance for throughput. Zookeeper's configuration is a footnote in the complexity of managing one of these systems, and lets them avoid implementing their own byzantine coordination system. Also, folks seem to appreciate Aphyr's opinion, and he states it pretty plainly: Use Zookeeper. It’s mature, well-designed, and battle-tested. [2] [1] https://github.com/Netflix/e
