Hi @delding, I'm sorry that I did not mention this earlier, but I just
noticed that the `HBaseSink` does not implement any logic for checkpointing and
fault-tolerance.
The checkpointing logic of a sink and the guarantees of the external data
store define what kind of emission guarantees a sink function can offer
(exactly once, at-least once). In order to make this PR mergable, we need to
figure out what kind of guarantees it provides under which assumptions / in
which scenarios. As an example see the [documentation of the Cassandra
sink](https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/dev/connectors/cassandra.html).
This is very important because users will rely on the stated guarantees.
I am not very familiar with HBase and what kind of write semantics and
transnational guarantees it provides. Can you describe which kind of guarantees
an `HBaseSink` can achieve and how it would be integrated with Flink's
Checkpointing mechanism?
Thanks, Fabian
