Shutting down your Flink job

In general, Flink Jobs can be shut down gracefully via Flink's "stop" command and ungracefully via Flink's "cancel" command.

Graceful shutdown

A graceful stop with snapshotting the current state can be done by creating the final Savepoint.

CLI

savepoint.yaml

$ rok create -f savepoint.yaml
