Github user delding commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2332 I agree it might be an overkill. But in case of having an sink that only supports Put/Delete, it would be better to have ordered execution than not, after all HBase has this API so there could be some use case that needs order guarantee.
