Hi Guys,
For historical reprocessing , I am reading the avro data from S3 and passing
these records to the same pipeline for processing.
I have the following queries:
1. I am running this pipeline as a stream application with checkpointing
enabled, the records are successfully written to S3, however they remain in
the pending state as checkpointing is not triggered when I doing
re-processing. Why does this happen ? (kept the checkpointing interval to 1
minute, pipeline ran for 10 minutes)
this is the code I am using for reading avro data from S3
/AvroInputFormat<SomeAvroClass> avroInputFormat = new AvroInputFormat<>(
new org.apache.flink.core.fs.Path(s3Path),
SomeAvroClass.class);
sourceStream = env.createInput(avroInputFormat).map(...);
/
2. For the source stream Flink sets the parallelism as 1 , and for the rest
of the operators the user specified parallelism is set. How does Flink reads
the data ? does it bring the entire file from S3 one at a time and then
Split it according to parallelism ?
3. I am reading from two different S3 folders and treating them as separate
sourceStreams, how does Flink reads data in this case ? does it pick one
file from each S3 folder , split the data and pass it downstream ? Does
Flink reads the data sequentially ? I am confused here as only one Task
Manager is reading the data from S3 and then all TM's are getting the data.
4. Although I am running this as as stream application, the operators goes
into FINISHED state after processing , is this because Flink treats the S3
source as finite data ? What will happen if the data is continuously written
to S3 from one pipeline and from the second pipeline I am doing historical
re-processing ?

Vinay Patil
