             Summary: let our Buffer class extend from netty's buffer class
                 Key: FLINK-7520
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7520
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Network
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Nico Kruber
            Assignee: Nico Kruber


Use a common (flink) {{Buffer}} interface and an implementation 
({{NetworkBuffer}}) that implements Netty's buffer methods as well. In the 
future, with this, we are able to avoid unnecessary buffer copies when handing 
buffers over to Netty while keeping our {{MemorySegment}} logic and 
configuration.
