Aljoscha Krettek commented on FLINK-3358:
-----------------------------------------

I think {{MemoryStateBackend}} is useless, except for simple testing. With any 
marginally larger state it will immediately fail, IMHO.

So I vote to have a constructor that implicitly creates a FsStateBackend.

> I think no user understands what they are supposed to do when they should 
> define a "backing state backend".
> The most common thing will probably be that the RocksDB snapshots are backed 
> up to HDFS and that this is also the backing state backend.
> A simple constructor with a single URI/Path/String that configures both at 
> the same time should be added, to make this accessible to users.
