But it could be Kafka’s client issue on the Flink side (as the stack trace is suggesting). You can just try to increase limit of opened files for Flink, or try to identify who is opening all of those files and limit it somehow - if it’s Kafka client indeed, maybe it can be configured to use less connections (that’s why I suggested to search for this), or just decreasing parallelism of the job.
