> In Flink the parallelism of job is a pre-specified parameter, which is 
> usually an empirical value and thus might not be optimal for both performance 
> and resource depending on the amount of data processed in each task.
> Furthermore, a fixed parallelism cannot scale to varying data size common in 
> production cluster where we may not often change configurations. 
> We propose to determine the job parallelism adaptive to the actual total 
> input data size and an ideal data size processed by each task. The ideal size 
> is pre-specified according to the properties of the operator such as the 
> preparation overhead compared with data processing time.
> Our basic idea of "split and merge" is to make the data dispatched evenly 
> acorss Reducers by spliting and/or merging data buckets produced by Map. The 
> data density skew problem is not covered. This kind of parallelism adjustment 
> doesn't have data correctness issue since it doesnt' break the condition that 
> data with the same key is processed by a single task.  We determine the 
> proper parallelism of Reduce during scheduling before its actual running and 
> after its input been ready though not necessary total input data. In such 
> context, apdative parallelism is a better name. This scheduling improvement 
> we think can benefit both batch and stream as long as we can obtain some 
> clues about the input data.
>  
> detailed design doc coming soon.
