Eron Wright commented on FLINK-5697:
-------------------------------------
My understanding is that per-partition watermarks make sense due to ordering
guarantees and the assumption of strictly-ascending timestamps per partition in
some Kafka app architectures. Given how shards are dynamic in Kinesis, does
this functionality make sense here?
> Add per-shard watermarks for FlinkKinesisConsumer

> It would be nice to let the Kinesis consumer be on-par in functionality with
> the Kafka consumer, since they share very similar abstractions. Per-partition
> / shard watermarks is something we can add also to the Kinesis consumer.
