----------------------------------------
Summary: Support manual cleanup of async operation results
Key: FLINK-24484
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-24484
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Runtime / REST
Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
Assignee: Chesnay Schepler
Fix For: 1.15.0
The REST API state for asynchronous operations results is currently kept for 5
minutes or until it was consumed by the user.
This behavior is fine for human interactions.
For automated interactions it is not ideal because if the external system fails
to persist the result then it cannot retrieve the result again. In other words
it only has exactly one attempt at consuming the result.
To solve this issue I propose:
a) make the caching timeout configurable (currently hard-coded to 5 minutes)
b) add a DELETE endpoint for operation results.
