Etienne Chauchot commented on FLINK-17961:
------------------------------------------

A question: I'm wondering if the source needs to implement 
_CheckpointedFunction or related._ ES source will be of batch type, executing 
an ES query storing the results and serving them one by one via the 
context.collect. For such a source, is this important to store the elements 
read so far in a checkpointed state in case of failure or should we just ignore 
the checkpointing mechanism and re-read from ES in case of error?

> There is only an Elasticsearch sink available. There are opensource github

> one|[https://github.com/mnubo/flink-elasticsearch-source-connector]]. Also 
> the apache bahir project does not provide an Elasticsearch source connector 
> for flink either. IMHO I think the project would benefit from having an 
> bundled source connector for ES alongside with the available sink connector.
