------------------------------------------
Attachment: FLINK-3397.pdf
Just adding a doc to highlight how things work now. If am missing something or
am wrong please do correct me. Also the proposal or solution am not sure what
[~uce] has in mind. Based on that I can create tasks and work on them. Valuable
feedback/comments are welcome and pardon for any misleading or wrong info. I
can update the doc based on the discussion here.
> Failed streaming jobs should fall back to the most recent checkpoint/savepoint

>
> The current fallback behaviour in case of a streaming job failure is slightly
> counterintuitive:
> If a job fails it will fall back to the most recent checkpoint (if any) even
> if there were more recent savepoint taken. This means that savepoints are not
> regarded as checkpoints by the system only points from where a job can be
> manually restarted.
> I suggest to change this so that savepoints are also regarded as checkpoints
> in case of a failure and they will also be used to automatically restore the
> streaming job.
