Thanks Tony for your very fast answer ,

Yes it resolves my problem that way, but with flatMap I will get
Tuple2<Rule, Record> always in the processing function (<NULL ,Record> in
case of no rules update available and <newRule,Record> in the other case ).
There is no optimization of this solution ? Do you think it is the same
solution in this picture : https://data-artisans.com/wp-c

Hi Sadok,

What I mean is to keep the rules in the operator state. The event in Rule
Stream is just the change log about rules.
For more specific, you can fetch the rules from Redis in the open step of
CoFlatMap and keep them in the operator state, then use Rule Stream to
notify the CoFlatMap to 1. update some rules or 2. refetch all rules from
Redis.
Is that what you want?

Best Regards,
Tony Wei
