----------------------------------------
[~fly_in_gis] What's your take on this?
> Add an ability to set ownerReference manually in Kubernetes
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-19206
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19206
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Deployment / Kubernetes
> Reporter: Mike Kaplinskiy
> Priority: Minor
>
> The current Kubernetes deployment creates a service that is the
> ownerReference of all the sub-objects (the JM & TM deployments & the rest
> service). However, something presumably has to start the cluster in the first
> place. If you are using a job cluster, that can be something like a
> kubernetes Job, a CronJob or a tool like Airflow. Unfortunately any failures
> in the Flink job can cause retries from these higher-level primitives, which
> can yield a lot of "stale clusters" that aren't GCed.
> The proposal here is to add a configuration option to set the ownerReference
> of the Flink Service. This way the service (and by proxy, all the cluster
> components) get deleted when the "parent" decides - including if the parent
> is itself a Kubernetes pod. For reference, Spark does something similar via
> {{spark.kubernetes.driver.pod.name}} (documented at
> [https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/running-on-kubernetes.html#client-mode-executor-pod-garbage-collection]).
