Hi Soumya,
except for the LocalFlinkMiniCluster, which is used by the LocalEnvironment
to execute Flink programs in your IDE, we don't use the global
ExecutionContext. Thus, it should be fine to use the global
ExecutionContext for your futures without affecting Flink.
However, I would recommend
What is the recommended practice for using a dedicated ExecutionContexts
inside Flink code?
We are making some external network calls using Futures. Currently all of
them are running on the global execution context (import
scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global).
Thanks
