Bowen Li updated FLINK-7508:
----------------------------
    Description: 
KinesisProducerLibrary (KPL) 0.10.x had been using a One-New-Thread-Per-Request 
model for all requests sent to AWS Kinesis, which is very expensive.

0.12.4 introduced a new [ThreadingMode - 
Pooled|https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-producer/blob/master/java/amazon-kinesis-producer/src/main/java/com/amazonaws/services/kinesis/producer/KinesisProducerConfiguration.java#L225],
 which will use a thread pool. This hugely improves KPL's performance and 
reduces consumed resources. By default, KPL still uses per-request mode. We 
should explicitly switch FlinkKinesisProducer's KPL threading mode to 'Pooled'.

This work depends on FLINK-7366 and FLINK-7508

Benchmarking I did:

* Environment: Running a Flink hourly-sliding windowing job on 18-node EMR 
cluster with R4.2xlarge instances. Each hourly-sliding window in the Flink job 
generates about 21million UserRecords, which means that we generated a test 
load of 21million UserRecords at the first minute of each hour.
* Criteria: Test KPL throughput per minute. Since the default RecordTTL for KPL 
is 30 sec, we can be sure that either all UserRecords are sent by KPL within a 
minute, or we will see UserRecord expiration errors.
* One-New-Thread-Per-Request model: max throughput is about 2million 
UserRecords per min; it doesn't go beyond that because CPU utilization goes to 
100%, everything stopped working and that Flink job crashed.
* Thread-Pool model: it sends out 21million UserRecords within 30 sec without 
any UserRecord expiration errors. The average peak CPU utilization is about 20% 
- 30%. So 21million UserRecords/min is not the max throughput of thread-pool 
model. We didn't go any further because 1) this throughput is already a couple 
times more than what we really need, and 2) we don't have a quick way of 
increasing the test load

Thus, I propose switching FlinkKinesisProducer to Thread-Pool mode. [~tzulitai]
