Hi Radu, the mapping which StreamOperator is executed by which StreamTask happens first in the StreamGraph.addOperator method. However, there is a second step in the StreamingJobGraphGenerator.createChain where chainable operators are chained and then executed by a single StreamTask. The construction of the actual operator chain happens in the class OperatorChain .
