The classic example would be joining against an external > database in order to enrich a stream with extra information. > It would be nice to add general support for this type of operation in the > Flink API. Ideally this could simply take the form of a new operator that > manages async operations, keeps so many of them in flight, and then emits > results to downstream operators as the async operations complete. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
