 The out of the box configuration will use your default Java installation. You 
can manually set the environment variable `JAVA_HOME` or the configuration key 
`env.java.home` in `conf/flink-conf.yaml` if you want to manually override the 
Java runtime to use.
 
+You can specifiy a different configuration directory location by defining the 
`FLINK_CONF_DIR` environment variable. For resource-providers which provide 
non-session deployments, you can specifiy per-job configurations this way. Make 
a copy of the `conf` directory from the Flink distribution and modify the 
settings on a per-job basis. Note that this is not supported in Docker or 
standalone Kubernetes deployments.

Review comment:
       Maybe also mention `FLINK_PROPERTIES` as the alternative in 
docker/standalone-k8s deployments. This, instead of specifying a different 
configuration directory, appends given configurations to the flink-conf file in 
the image.
