########## docs/content/docs/deployment/config.md: ########## @@ -158,6 +158,7 @@ You can configure checkpointing directly in code within your Flink job or applic - `execution.checkpointing.dir`: The directory to write checkpoints to. This takes a path URI like *s3://mybucket/flink-app/checkpoints* or *hdfs://namenode:port/flink/checkpoints*. - `execution.checkpointing.savepoint-dir`: The default directory for savepoints. Takes a path URI, similar to `execution.checkpointing.dir`. - `execution.checkpointing.interval`: The base interval setting. To enable checkpointing, you need to set this value larger than 0. + - `execution.checkpointing.initial-delay`: The initial delay before the first checkpoint is triggered. This is useful for jobs that need time to warm up or catch up with backlogs (e.g., consuming from Kafka with large lag). Review Comment: I am curious, - can we notice the warm up or catch up with backlogs activity and dynamically wait as long a is appropriate. - I suggest it is worth documenting what the impact is if we hit a warm up or catch up with backlogs activity without this delay and some discussion of the trade offs when using this option. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
