             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: DataStream API

Flink seems to struggle saving data to s3 due to the lack of a truncate method, and in my test this resulted in lots of files with a .valid-length suffix

I’m using a bucketing sink:
{code:java}
return new BucketingSink<Tuple2<String, Object>>(path)
.setWriter(writer)
.setBucketer(new DateTimeBucketer<Tuple2<String, Object>>(formatString));{code}
