Hi Wu,

The uid is used to distinguish between the different subtasks, if removed, the 
different subtasks
of the filesink would have name conflicts if they writes to the same bucket, 
thus the uid should
be necessary if there are multiple subtasks.

Best,
Yun

Subject:What's the purpose of uniqueId in FileWriterBucket
Hi, folks,

From 1.14, file sink add a uid to a committed file, so would you mind to tell 
me what’s the purpose of this field? Can it be removed safely?
