> Currently Flink provides the BucketingSink as an exactly once method for 
> writing out to a file system. It provides these guarantees by moving files 
> through several stages and deleting or truncating files that get into a bad 
> state. While this is a powerful abstraction, it causes issues with eventually 
> consistent file systems such as Amazon's S3 where most operations (ie rename, 
> delete, truncate) are not guaranteed to become consistent within a reasonable 
> amount of time. Flink should provide a sink that provides exactly once writes 
> to a file system where only PUT operations are considered consistent.
