@Vinay! Just saw the screenshot you attached to the first mail. The checkpoint that failed came after one that had an incredible heavy alignment phase (14 GB). I think that working that off threw the next checkpoint because the workers were still working off the alignment backlog.
I think you can for now fix this by setting the minimum pause between checkpoints a bit higher (it is probably set a bit too small for the state of your application). Also, can you describe what your sources are (Kafka / Kinesis or file system)? BTW: We are currently working on - incremental RocksDB checkpoints - the network stack to allow in the future for a new way of doing the alignment Both of that should help that the program is more resilient to these situations.
