Till Rohrmann updated FLINK-4456:
---------------------------------
Description:
The {{Task}} communicates with the outside world ({{JobManager}} and
{{TaskManager}}) via {{ActorGateways}}. This bakes in the dependency on actors.
In terms of modularization and an improved abstraction (especially wrt Flip-6)
I propose to replace the {{ActorGateways}} by interfaces which exposes the
required methods. The current implementation would then simply wrap the method
calls in messages and send them via the {{ActorGateway}} to the recipient.
In Flip-6 the {{JobMaster}} could simply implement these interfaces as part of
their RPC contract.
