Do we provide anything that allows the user to identify files that weren't
cleaned up but can be removed? Something like a list of "active" pending files?
> BucketingSink deletes valid data when checkpoint notification is slow.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5056
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: filesystem-connector
> Affects Versions: 1.1.3
> Reporter: Kostas Kloudas
> Assignee: Kostas Kloudas
> Fix For: 1.2.0
>
>
> Currently if BucketingSink receives no data after a checkpoint and then a
> notification about a previous checkpoint arrives, it clears its state. This
> can
> lead to not committing valid data about intermediate checkpoints for whom
> a notification has not arrived yet. As a simple sequence that illustrates the
> problem:
> -> input data
> -> snapshot(0)
> -> input data
> -> snapshot(1)
> -> no data
> -> notifyCheckpointComplete(0)
> the last will clear the state of the Sink without committing as final the
> data
> that arrived for checkpoint 1.
