---------------------------------------

             Summary: Clearly Separate Responsibilities of StreamOperator and 
StreamTask
                 Key: FLINK-4859
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4859
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Streaming
            Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek
            Priority: Blocker


Currently, {{StreamTask}} and {{StreamOperator}} perform a complicated dance 
for certain operations. For example, when restoring from a snapshot, the state 
backends are restored in the {{StreamTask}}, but only after {{StreamTask}} 
calls restore on the operator and the operator asks for the backends. There is 
no clear separation/modularisation with properly defined interfaces right now.

The code works right now but maintainability/understandability could be greatly 
improved.
