Marek Simunek commented on FLINK-13247:
---------------------------------------

Very very glad to hear. Frankly running batch jobs without external shuffle 
service is not economically viable due to wasted resources. So in our company 
it's must have to start preferring Flink over spark for batch jobs.

> Implement external shuffle service for YARN

> Flink batch job users could achieve better cluster utilization and job 
> throughput throught external shuffle service because the producers of 
> intermedia result partitions can be released once intermedia result 
> partitions have been persisted on disks. In 
> [FLINK-10653|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10653], [~zjwang] 
> has introduced pluggable shuffle manager architecture which abstracts the 
> process of data transfer between stages from flink runtime as shuffle 
> service. I propose to YARN implementation for flink external shuffle service 
> since YARN is widely used in various companies.
> The basic idea is as follows:
> (1) Producers write intermedia result partitions to local disks assigned by 
> NodeManager;
> (2) Yarn shuffle servers, deployed on each NodeManager as an auxiliary 
> service, are acknowledged of intermedia result partition descriptions by 
> producers;
> (3) Consumers fetch intermedia result partition from yarn shuffle servers;
