Hi Mani,
Just to let you know I think it would make sense to either
(1) implement checkpointing for BoundedReadFromUnboundedSource
or
(2) throw an error in case of a provided checkpoint mark
Like you pointed out, ignoring it like we currently do, does not seem
like a feasible solution.

Hi Alexey,
I did explore that route. The problem there is to identify what
timestamp to use. While processing records, you can capture the
timestamp. This cannot be processing time, but event time on the Kinesis
record. As far I see, event time on Kinesis record is generated from
ApproximateArrivalTimestamp field on getRecords API call. According to
Kinesis doc[1]: There are no guarantees about the time stamp accuracy,
or that the time stamp is always increasing. For example, records in a
shard or across a stream might have time stamps that are out of order.
So there is a chance to skip records if timestamps captured on
checkpoint were out of order. Also there is no provision to provide per
shard timestamp while initializing KinesisReader.

Hi Mani,
Knowing when you last run was stopped (since you use batch mode), could
you leverage “withInitialPositionInStream()” or
“withInitialTimestampInStream()” for KinesisIO in this case?

Hi Max,
Thank you for your reply. Our use case is to run a batch job against
a Kinesis source. Our downstream systems are still on batch mode. So
this application will read from the Kinesis source periodically and
generate batched outputs. Without ability to resume from a
checkpoint, it will be reading entire stream every time.

Mani

Hi Mani,
BoundedReadFromUnboundedSource was originally intended to be used in
batch pipelines. In batch, runners typically do not perform
checkpointing. In case of failures, they re-run the entire pipeline.
Keep in mind that, even with checkpointing, reading for a finite
time in the processing time domain from an unbounded source rarely
gives consistent results across runs.
However, ignoring the checkpoint looks problematic. We may want to
fail during checkpointing to prevent violating correctness (e.g.
exactly-once semantics).

Observed on v2.22.0
When withMaxReadTime() is used, Beam creates a
BoundedReadFromUnboundedSource [1]. The ReadFn<T> class in
BoundedReadFromUnboundedSource which is responsible for reading
records from source. You can see this class doesnt verify if
there is
a recoverable checkpoint exist. Instead it always creates Reader
with
checkpointMark set as null [2].
Is this desired behavior? More importantly, do you guys recommend
using
withMaxReadTime() in production setup? Or is this more for demo
usecases?
I have created a jira for the same (BEAM-104934

confirmation on the above first.
