Fabian Hueske created FLINK-992: ----------------------------------- Summary: Create CollectionDataSets by reading (client) local files. Key: FLINK-992 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-992 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Java API, Python API, Scala API Reporter: Fabian Hueske Priority: Minor
{{CollectionDataSets}} are a nice way to feed data into programs. We could add support to read a client-local file at program construction time using a FileInputFormat, put its data into a CollectionDataSet, and ship its data together with the program. This would remove the need to upload small files into DFS which are used together with some large input (stored in DFS). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
