Changes look good (including the test). I'm OK with the current name. I
understand why it is up for discussion but I can't come up with a better name
at the moment. ;)
> Add Semi-Rebalance Data Shipping for DataStream
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-3336
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3336
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Streaming
> Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek
> Assignee: Aljoscha Krettek
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> This feature has recently been requested on the ML:
> http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/Distribution-of-sinks-among-the-nodes-td4640.html
> The new data shipping pattern would allow to rebalance data only to a subset
> of downstream operations.
> The subset of downstream operations to which the upstream operation would send
> elements depends on the degree of parallelism of both the upstream and
> downstream operation.
> For example, if the upstream operation has parallelism 2 and the downstream
> operation
> has parallelism 4, then one upstream operation would distribute elements to
> two
> downstream operations while the other upstream operation would distribute to
> the other
> two downstream operations. If, on the other hand, the downstream operation
> had parallelism
> 2 while the upstream operation has parallelism 4 then two upstream operations
> would
> distribute to one downstream operation while the other two upstream
> operations would
> distribute to the other downstream operations.
> In cases where the different parallelisms are not multiples of each other one
> or several
> downstream operations would have a differing number of inputs from upstream
> operations.
