Hi Ajay, After reading all the data from your source, could you somehow tell your sources to send a watermark of Long.MaxValue (or a high value)??
I am asking this, just to see if the problem is that the data is simply buffered inside Flink because there is a problem with the timestamps and the watermarks. You could also see this from the WebUi, but seeing the size of your checkpointed state. If the size increases, it means that something is stored there. I will also have a deeper look.
