+ * {@link State} interface for partitioned key-value state. The key-value
pair can be
+ * added, updated and retrieved.
+ *
+ * <p>The state is accessed and modified by user functions, and
checkpointed consistently
+ * by the system as part of the distributed snapshots.
+ *
+ * <p>The state is only accessible by functions applied on a
KeyedDataStream. The key is
+ * automatically supplied by the system, so the function always sees the
value mapped to the
+ * key of the current element. That way, the system can handle stream and
state partitioning
+ * consistently together.
+ *
+ * @param <UK> Type of the keys in the state.
+ * @param <UV> Type of the values in the state.
