Till Rohrmann commented on FLINK-7930:
--------------------------------------
Not sure what you mean with periodic job but you can cancel jobs with a
savepoint and then resume another job from this savepoint. This should allow
you to do something like periodic jobs whose lifecycle is managed by an
external system.
> Support periodic jobs with state that gets restored and persisted in a
> savepoint
