Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-15670:
--------------------------------------
[~ym] The independent recovery of regions is active by default. I think it
would be good to still have the tasks in the same job, so they can share slots,
cached artifacts (jars), classloaders, etc.
> Provide a Kafka Source/Sink pair that aligns Kafka's Partitions and Flink's
> KeyGroups

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: API / DataStream, Connectors / Kafka
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Priority: Major
> Labels: usability
> Fix For: 1.11.0

>
> This Source/Sink pair would serve two purposes:
> 1. You can read topics that are already partitioned by key and process them
> without partitioning them again (avoid shuffles)
> 2. You can use this to shuffle through Kafka, thereby decomposing the job
> into smaller jobs and independent pipelined regions that fail over
> independently.
