Maximilian Michels commented on BEAM-6077: ------------------------------------------ Your observation concerning Flink is correct. The partitions are discovered during runtime and assigned using the subtask index. I don't understand the problem concerning Kafka, it seems to pre-assign the splits when creating UnboundedKafakSource. Looking at the source, it seems to never create more splits than the partition size, but I'm not that familiar with Beam's Kafka connector. > Make UnboundedSource state rescale friendly > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: BEAM-6077 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-6077 > Project: Beam > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: runner-flink > Affects Versions: 2.8.0 > Reporter: Jozef Vilcek > Assignee: Jozef Vilcek > Priority: Major > Time Spent: 40m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > FlinkRunner's UnboundedSourceWrapper currently does not rescale well it's > state when job changes parallelism. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
