Netflix Curator is a Java framework and client wrapper for Apache ZooKeeper that simplifies distributed coordination. The main project has moved to Apache (curator.apache.org), and this repository now hosts only Netflix-specific extensions to Curator.
Use cases
- manage ZooKeeper connections with retry and reliability guarantees
- implement distributed locks and leader election with ZooKeeper
- simplify ZooKeeper recipe usage in JVM services
- use Netflix-specific extensions to Apache Curator
- bridge ZKClient-based code to Curator
When to choose
- you need a high-level, reliable ZooKeeper client for Java
- you want battle-tested distributed coordination recipes like locks and leader election
- you specifically need Netflix's extensions to Apache Curator
When to avoid
- you need the actively developed core Curator framework - use Apache Curator instead
- your project does not use ZooKeeper
- you need a non-JVM language client
