Starting with version 2.10, the Apache ZooKeeper dependency has been eliminated and been replaced with a pluggable framework that enables you to reduce the infrastructure footprint of Apache Pulsar by leveraging alternative metadata and coordination systems based upon your deployment environment.

In this talk, I will walk you through the steps required to utilize the existing etcd service running inside Kubernetes to act as Pulsar’s metadata store. Thereby eliminating the need to run ZooKeeper entirely, leaving you with a Zookeeper-less Pulsar.
