---------------------------------------
Summary: Clearly Separate Responsibilities of StreamOperator and
StreamTask
Key: FLINK-4859
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4859
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Streaming
Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek
Priority: Blocker
Currently, {{StreamTask}} and {{StreamOperator}} perform a complicated dance
for certain operations. For example, when restoring from a snapshot, the state
backends are restored in the {{StreamTask}}, but only after {{StreamTask}}
calls restore on the operator and the operator asks for the backends. There is
no clear separation/modularisation with properly defined interfaces right now.
The code works right now but maintainability/understandability could be greatly
improved.
