We cannot restart Travis ourselves. Only the contributor can schedule
another run by adding another commit (even an empty one). However, please don't
do that for the sake of getting a picture-perfect build; we are aware of some
unstable tests and account for that in the review.
> Sink for eventually consistent file systems

> Currently Flink provides the BucketingSink as an exactly once method for
> writing out to a file system. It provides these guarantees by moving files
> through several stages and deleting or truncating files that get into a bad
> state. While this is a powerful abstraction, it causes issues with eventually
> consistent file systems such as Amazon's S3 where most operations (ie rename,
> delete, truncate) are not guaranteed to become consistent within a reasonable
> amount of time. Flink should provide a sink that provides exactly once writes
> to a file system where only PUT operations are considered consistent.
