Krzysztof,
Note that if you want to have Flink treat these sequence numbers as event
time timestamps, you probably can, so long as they are generally
increasing, and there's some bound on how out-of-order they can be.
The advantage to doing this is that you might be able to use Flink SQL's
event
Hi Krzysztof,
first of all Flink does not sort events based on timestamp. The concept
of watermarks just postpones the triggering of a time operation until
the watermark says all events until a time t have arrived.
For your problem, you can simply use a ProcessFunction and buffer the
events
Hi,
Is it possible to use an field that does not represent timestamp to order
events in Flink's pipeline?
In other words, I will receive a stream of events that will ha a sequence
number (gaps are possible).
Can I maintain the order of those events based on this field same as I would
do for time
