Henry Saputra commented on FLINK-1744:
--------------------------------------
It is common but it is coming from old term of master-slaves architecture. The
term Flink uses is worker for the nodes that do all the work.
I filed this JIRA to see if it is better for Flink match the terms used in the
project.
> Change the reference of slaves to workers to match the description of the
> system
