Ben Sidhom created BEAM-4063: -------------------------------- Summary: Flink runner supports cluster-wide artifact deployments through the Distributed Cache Key: BEAM-4063 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4063 Project: Beam Issue Type: New Feature Components: runner-flink Reporter: Ben Sidhom Assignee: Aljoscha Krettek
As of now, Flink effectively has a dependency on an external storage system for artifact management. This is because the Flink Distributed Cache does not actually distribute and cache blobs itself, but rather expects that each node in a running cluster has access to a well-known artifact resource. We should get this for free whenever [https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5580] is merged (likely in 1.5). For now, we will have to defer to external storage systems like GCS or HDFS. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
