-------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Do
Instead of having multiple filesystem sink, improvements will be made to the
bucketing sink to support eventually consistent stores.
> 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.
