>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8814
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Streaming Connectors
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
>            Reporter: Jelmer Kuperus
>            Priority: Major
>
> BucketingSink creates files with the following pattern
> {noformat}
> partPrefix + "-" + subtaskIndex + "-" + bucketState.partCounter{noformat}
> When using checkpointing you have no control over the extension of the final 
> files generated. This is incovenient when you are for instance writing files 
> in the avro format because
>  # [Hue|http://gethue.com/] will not be able to render the files as avro See 
> this 
> [file|https://github.com/cloudera/hue/blob/master/apps/filebrowser/src/filebrowser/views.py#L730]
>  # [Spark avro|https://github.com/databricks/spark-avro/] will not be able to 
> read the files unless you set a special property. See [this 
> ticket|https://github.com/databricks/spark-avro/issues/203]
> It would be good if we had the ability to customize the extension of the 
> files created
