Interface StateStore

All Known Subinterfaces:

KeyValueStore<K,V>, WindowStore<K,V>

public interface StateStore

A storage engine for managing state maintained by a stream processor.

This interface does not specify any query capabilities, which, of course, would be query engine specific. Instead it just specifies the minimum functionality required to reload a storage engine from its changelog as well as basic lifecycle management.
