Piotr Nowojski updated FLINK-22797:
-----------------------------------
Component/s: (was: Runtime / Checkpointing)
Runtime / State Backends
> Improve incremental checkpoints documentation
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-22797
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-22797
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation, Runtime / State Backends
> Reporter: Nicolaus Weidner
> Priority: Minor
>
> Information on incremental checkpoints is somewhat scattered and hard to find
> in the documentation. In particular, the main page on checkpoints [1] should
> contain at least a short description of incremental checkpoints. They are
> currently mentioned in only one sentence, without any further explanation.
> A very short summary with a link to the RocksDB section [2] would suffice,
> since they are specific to that state backend.
> They are also mentioned on the config pages [3 and 4], which likewise contain
> incomplete information and no link ("may not be supported by every state
> backend").
> One basically has to follow the above clues and deduce that there may be more
> information in the state backends section.
