Hi, Documentation for
ContinuousEventTimeTrigger
says:
A Trigger that continuously fires based on a given time interval. This fires based on Watermarks.
Does that depend on the stream actually receiving data? I was hoping this Trigger would fire even if not but no luck. What's the difference between
ContinuousEventTimeTrigger
and
EventTimeTrigger
?

Event time processing requires receiving data. I usually add an empty ping message on the data producer to move time forward.

The source where the events comes from are streaming continuously, but the specific node I'm using
ContinuousEventTimeTrigger
receives a message from time to time. I'm sure watermarks are going up because other parts of the processing continues to happen. I was hoping
ContinuousEventTimeTrigger
would solve this for me. As of now can't really understand the difference in behavior between
ContinuousEventTimeTrigger
and
EventTimeTrigger
.

I see.
I need to think about it more. I'll come back if I figure this out.

Appreciate, thank you so much!

Why don’t you open the Java source files?
I’m sure you can spot the difference immediately.
