Hi, I’m afraid that’s not possible out-of-box with the current APIs. I actually don’t know why the user-facing Partitioner only allows returning one target because the internal StreamPartitioner (which extends ChannelSelector) allows returning multiple target partitions.
You can hack around the API by manually creating your own StreamPartitioner and applying it to the DataStream as DataStream.partitionCustom() and DataStream.setConnectionType() (the first calls the latter) do.
