Ordered events in broadcast state

Filip Niksic
Hi all,

The documentation for the broadcast state explicitly says that the order of broadcast events may differ across tasks, so the state updates should not depend on a particular order. [1] But what to do in the use cases where the order matters? Is there some way to enforce the order even at the expense of performance, or are such use cases out of scope for Flink?
