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. > Create constructors for FsStateBackend in RocksDBBackens > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3358 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3358 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: te backends > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Stephan Ewen > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
