Re: Rocksdb in production
That depends on your job and the setup. Remember that all operators will write their checkpoint data into that file system. If the state grows very large and only have an NFS with little write performance, it might be a problem. But the same would apply to HDFS as well. 2018-03-06 2:51 GMT-08:00 Jayant Ameta: > Thanks Fabian. > Will there be any performance issues if I use NFS as the shared filesystem > (as compared to HDFS or S3)? > > Jayant Ameta > > On Mon, Mar 5, 2018 at 10:31 PM, Fabian Hueske wrote: > >> Yes, that is correct. >> >> 2018-03-05 8:57 GMT-08:00 Jayant Ameta : >> >>> Oh!

Re: Rocksdb in production
Thanks Fabian. Will there be any performance issues if I use NFS as the shared filesystem (as compared to HDFS or S3)?

Yes, that is correct. 2018-03-05 8:57 GMT-08:00 Jayant Ameta: > Oh!

Re: Rocksdb in production
Oh! Somehow I missed while reading the documentation that RocksDB is embedded in Flink. Also, irrespective of state backend being filesystem or rocksdb, I'll have to setup a shared filesystem (HDFS, S3, etc). Is my understanding correct?

Re: Rocksdb in production
Hi, RockDB is an embedded key-value storage that is internally used by Flink. There is no need to setup a RocksDB database or service yourself. All of that is done by Flink. As a Flink user that uses the RockDB state backend, you won't get in touch with RocksDB itself. Besides that, RocksDB is developed by Facebook [1] and is a fairly active project.
