Stephan Ewen created FLINK-2706: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add support for streaming RollingFileSink to truncate / append on UNIX file systems Key: FLINK-2706 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2706 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Streaming Connectors Affects Versions: 0.10 Reporter: Stephan Ewen
Efficient exactly-once behavior needs the filesystem to support appending and truncating files. Since the UNIX file system API allows to append files and truncate files, we can support perfect exactly-once behavior efficiently on all file systems that expose a UNIX / POSIX-style interface (local FS, NFS, MapR FS). Without this support, only Hadoop 2.7+ versions support proper exactly once behavior. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
