             Summary: Add an option to truncate IDs to 8 characters
                 Key: FLINK-7946
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7946
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Metrics
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
            Assignee: Chesnay Schepler
             Fix For: 1.4.0


This issue is about adding a short_ids option to the metrics configuration to 
truncate all IDs to 8 characters.

The string representation for Flink IDs is 32 characters long; this level of 
uniqueness is however not required in all cases.
