Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-9043:
-------------------------------------
When a Flink job starts, you can tell it explicitly to start from a checkpoint
(via checkpoint path) or savepoint.
That gives you the control to do exactly what you describe. In contrast, when
starting a job without and further argument, Flink assumes it is a new job.
Both cases are valid use cases, that's why Flink makes it explicit whether a
job starts from a checkpoint or starts as a new job.
> Flink recover from checkpoint like Spark Streaming

> I know a flink job can reovery from checkpoint with restart strategy, but can
> not recovery as spark streaming jobs when job is starting.
> Every time, the submitted flink job is regarded as a new job, while , in the
> spark streaming job, which can detect the checkpoint directory first, and
> then recovery from the latest succeed one. However, Flink only can recovery
> until the job failed first, then retry with strategy.

> So, would flink support to recover from the checkpoint directly in a new job?
