> Currently, BucketingSink only support {{notifyCheckpointComplete}}. However, 
> users want to do some extra work when a bucket is ready. It would be nice if 
> we can support {{BucketReady}} mechanism for users or we can tell users when 
> a bucket is ready for use. For example, One bucket is created for every 5 
> minutes, at the end of 5 minutes before creating the next bucket, the user 
> might need to do something as the previous bucket ready, like sending the 
> timestamp of the bucket ready time to a server or do some other stuff.
> Here, Bucket ready means all the part files suffix name under a bucket 
> neither {{.pending}} nor {{.in-progress}}. Then we can think this bucket is 
> ready for user use. Like a watermark means no elements with a timestamp older 
> or equal to the watermark timestamp should arrive at the window. We can also 
> refer to the concept of watermark here, or we can call this *BucketWatermark* 
> if we could.
> Recently, I found a user who wants this functionality which I would think.

> Below is what he said:
> My user case is we read data from message queue, write to HDFS, and our ETL 
> team will use the data in HDFS. *In the case, ETL need to know if all data is 
> ready to be read accurately*, so we use a counter to count how many data has 
> been wrote, if the counter is equal to the number we received, we think HDFS 
> file is ready. We send the counter message in a custom sink so ETL can know 
> how many data has been wrote, but if use current BucketingSink, even through 
> HDFS file is flushed, ETL may still cannot read the data. If we can close 
> file during checkpoint, then the result is accurately. And for the HDFS small 
> file problem, it can be controller by use bigger checkpoint interval.
