Hi Yuepeng, I was looking the motivation section of the flip. It says: * Facilitate users to trace the history of rescale and make rescale information more transparent * Provide users with information on optimizing Adaptive Scheduler parameters
I wonder if the second point could read : "Provide users with information that can be used to optimize Adaptive Scheduler parameters." Or is it recommending optimizations? I would find it easier to read to have some motivating examples, of what the history might show that could lead the user to decide to optimise. The value of the Flip would then be more explicit. Kind regards, David.

FYI, To ensure that the rescale history stored and recorded in FLIP-495 can be accessed by external systems/users, we'd plan to release the FLIP-495 functionality together with at least two sub-tasks[1][2] of FLIP-487[3]. These two sub-tasks will respectively support: - retrieving all current rescale history records - retrieving the detailed record of a specific rescale by its rescale UUID [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-38894 [2] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-38895 [3] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-22258 Best, Yuepeng Pan On 2025/09/18 04:03:22 Yuepeng Pan wrote: > Hi, community. > > FYI: > Since the design work of the query interface of rescale history was separated > into FLIP-487[1] during the discussion, we have therefore changed the title > of the FLIP to: > > FLIP-495: Support AdaptiveScheduler record and store the rescale history. > > [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/vZCMEw > > Best regards, > Yuepeng Pan > > On 2025/08/19 09:13:22 Yuepeng Pan wrote: > > Bumping this thread kindly.
