             Summary: Flink runner: submit job to a Flink-on-YARN cluster
                 Key: BEAM-1631
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-1631
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: runner-flink
            Reporter: Davor Bonaci
            Assignee: Aljoscha Krettek


As far as I understand, running Beam pipelines on a Flink cluster can be done in two ways:
* Run directly with a Flink runner, and specifying {{--flinkMaster}} pipeline option via, say, {{mvn exec}}.
* Produce a bundled JAR, and use {{bin/flink}} to submit the same pipeline.

These two ways are equivalent, and work well on a standalone Flink cluster.

Submitting to a Flink-on-YARN is more complicated. You can still produce a bundled JAR, and use {{bin/flink -yid <applicationid>}} to submit such a job. However, that seems impossible with a Flink runner directly.

If so, we should add the ability to the Flink runner to submit a job to a Flink-on-YARN cluster directly.
