@Wenlong After another consideration, the config option approach I mentioned above might not be appropriate. The resource requirements for SSG should be a job level configuration and should no be set in the flink-conf.
I think we can define a JSON format, which would be the ResourceSpecs mapped by the name of SSGs, for the resource requirements of a specific job. Then, we allow user to configure the file path of that JSON. The JSON will be only parsed in runtime, which allows user to tune it without re-compiling the job. We can add another #setSlotSharingGroupResources for configuring the file path of that JSON: ``` /** * Specify fine-grained resource requirements for slot sharing groups with the given resource JSON file. The existing resource * requirement of the same slot sharing group will be replaced. */ public StreamExecutionEnvironment setSlotSharingGroupResources( String pathToResourceJson); ``` WDYT?
