>                 Key: BEAM-5859
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-5859
>             Project: Beam
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: runner-flink
>            Reporter: Maximilian Michels
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: portability, portability-flink, triaged
>         Attachments: tfx.png, wordcount.png

>          Time Spent: 4h
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h

> Users often ask how they can reason about the pipeline translation. The Flink 
> UI display a confusingly large graph without any trace of the original Beam 
> pipeline:
> WordCount:
>  !wordcount.png! 
> TFX:
>  !tfx.png! 
> Some aspects which make understanding these graphs hard:
>  * Users don't know how the Runner maps Beam to Flink concepts
>  * The UI is awfully slow / hangs when the pipeline is reasonable complex
>  * The operator names seem to use {{transform.getUniqueName()}} which doesn't 
> generate readable name
>  * So called Chaining combines operators into a single operator which makes 
> understanding which Beam concept belongs to which Flink concept even harder
>
