What I meant was that `ConfigConstants` used in exception handling in `RestartStrategyFactory` and in `FixedDelayRestartStrategy` are the same even though couple lines higher during configuration reading in both classes different `ConfigConstants` are used. It looks like removed exception handling was referring to wrong `ConfigConstants`? Or maybe wrong `ConfigConstant` is used in one case (`AKKA_WATCH_HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL` vs `AKKA_WATCH_HEARTBEAT_PAUSE`)? And probably in `FixedDelayRestartStrategy` constant `RESTART_STRATEGY_FIXED_DELAY_DELAY` should be used instead of `EXECUTION_RETRY_DELAY_KEY`? I'm not quite sure. > Retry rate limits for DataStream API > ------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-3190 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3190 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sebastian Klemke > Assignee: Michał Fijołek > Priority: Minor > > For a long running stream processing job, absolute numbers of retries don't > make much sense: The job will accumulate transient errors over time and will > die eventually when thresholds are exceeded. Rate limits are better suited in > this scenario: A job should only die, if it fails too often in a given time > frame. To better overcome transient errors, retry delays could be used, as > suggested in other issues. > Absolute numbers of retries can still make sense, if failing operators don't > make any progress at all. We can measure progress by OperatorState changes > and by observing output, as long as the operator in question is not a sink. > If operator state changes and/or operator produces output, we can assume it > makes progress. > As an example, let's say we configured a retry rate limit of 10 retries per > hour and a non-sink operator A. If the operator fails once every 10 minutes > and produces output between failures, it should not lead to job termination. > But if the operator fails 11 times in an hour or does not produce output > between 11 consecutive failures, job should be terminated. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
