> This JIRA tracks the ongoing efforts and discussions about a means to read / write / process state in savepoints.
> There are already two known existing works (that was mentioned already in the mailing lists) related to this:
> 1. Bravo [1]
> 2. https://github.com/sjwiesman/flink/tree/savepoint-connector
> Essentially, the two tools both provide a connector to read or write a Flink savepoint, and allows to utilize Flink's processing APIs for querying / processing the state in the savepoint.
> We should try to converge the efforts on this, and have a savepoint connector like this in Flink.
> With this connector, the high-level benefits users should be able to achieve with it are:
> 1. Create savepoints using existing data from other systems (i.e. bootstrapping a Flink job's state with data in an external database).
> 2. Derive new state using existing state
> 3. Query state in savepoints, for example for debugging purposes
> 4. Migrate schema of state in savepoints offline, compared to the current more limited approach of online migration on state access.
> 5. Change max parallelism of jobs, or any other kind of fixed configuration, such as operator uids.
