Zhijiang Wang commented on FLINK-4256:
--------------------------------------
In further improvement, if task c failed, the following downstream tasks like d
and e should not be restarted. We already make some works related with it.
I am interested in the issue of caching intermediate result, it can solve the
problem of restarting upstream tasks of failed one. Is it the
PIPELINED_PERSISTENT type in result partition? Wish further plan for it.

> Key: FLINK-4256
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4256
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JobManager
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: Stephan Ewen
> Fix For: 1.2.0
>
>
> When a task fails during execution, Flink currently resets the entire
> execution graph and triggers complete re-execution from the last completed
> checkpoint. This is more expensive than just re-executing the failed tasks.
> In many cases, more fine-grained recovery is possible.
> The full description and design is in the corresponding FLIP.
