> In order to properly execute batch jobs, we should make the lifecycle management of intermediate result partitions the responsibility of the {{JobMaster}}/{{Scheduler}} component. The {{Scheduler}} knows best when an intermediate result partition is no longer needed and, thus, can be freed. So for example, a blocking intermediate result should only be released after all subsequent blocking intermediate results have been completed in order to speed up potential failovers.
> Moreover, having explicit control over intermediate result partitions, could also enable use cases like result partition sharing between jobs and even across clusters (by simply not releasing the result partitions).
