Matthias J. Sax created FLINK-2836: -------------------------------------- Summary: Cyclic Topologies not supported Key: FLINK-2836 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2836 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Storm Compatibility Reporter: Matthias J. Sax
Currently, FlinkTopologyBuilder cannot handle cyclic topologies. In order to implement this feature correctly, FlinkTopologyBuilder must first *detect* cycles in the topology and assembly the Flink streaming program accordingly. As Storm allows for arbitrary dataflow structure, multiple cycles would be allows. Not sure if Flink can handle those. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
