Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-1962:
-------------------------------------

In Scala, you usually use the Scala tuples.

The Java tuples were introduced, because:
  - we wanted to keep the Scala dependencies out of the Java API
  - they can be used in a mutable way, which allows you to make some 
performance optimizations
  - we wound that certain Java programmers were confused by the scala tuples 
and the fields counting from _1 (where the tuple positions in the keys count 
from 0)

That being said, you should be able to use scala tuples in the Java API, if you 
prefer that...

> Add Gelly Scala API
