---------------------------------------
Github user StephanEwen commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3487
For batch jobs, I would suggest that we make sure that the
`ExecutionEnvironment` or the `JobGraphGenerator` sets the max parallelism to
the parallelism. Then we do not need to differentiate in the RuntimeContext.
> Expose max-parallelism value in RuntimeContext

> I am implementing a custom source function. I want to keep all progresses in
> a ListState to support dynamically scaling just like what FlinkKafkaConsumer
> did. And I think the max-parallelism value is ideal length for the ListState
> in my scenario. But I realize that currently the max-parallelism value is not
> visible to UDF.
> I propose exposing the max-parallelism value in RuntimeContext. It will be
> useful in dynamically scaling scenario.
