+1 for going consistently with parallelism. However, these are API-breaking changes and we need to mark them deprecated before throwing them out, IMO.
I am not comfortable with using AUTOMAX as a default. This is fine on dedicated setups like YARN sessions, but will consume all available resources of a cluster if a user forgets to set the -p flag (or fix the DOP in the program). There is already a default-parallelsm flag in the config and that value should be used, IMO. 2015-03-12 10:07 GMT+01:00 Robert Metzger (JIRA) <j...@apache.org>: > > [ > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1679?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14358345#comment-14358345 > ] > > Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-1679: > --------------------------------------- > > I would suggest to remove all occurrences of "degreeOfParalleism" in the > system and replace it by "parallelism" everywhere. > The CLI frontend for example also calls it {{-p}}, not {{-dop}}. > > I would also suggest to set the parallelism by default to {{AUTOMAX}} in > the CliFrontend. > > > Document how "degree of parallelism" / "parallelism" / "slots" are > connected to each other > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > > Key: FLINK-1679 > > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1679 > > Project: Flink > > Issue Type: Task > > Components: Documentation > > Affects Versions: 0.9 > > Reporter: Robert Metzger > > Assignee: Ufuk Celebi > > > > I see too many users being confused about properly setting up Flink with > respect to parallelism. > > > > -- > This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA > (v6.3.4#6332) >
