I think what you outline is the right way to go for the time being.

The "Client" class is being reworked to bet more of these deployment/controlling methods, to make it easier to deploy/cancel/restart jobs programatically, but that will probably take a few more weeks to converge.

Hi!

We want to build an infrastructure for automated deployment of Flink Streaming programs to a dedicated environment. This includes automated tests (unit and integration) via Jenkins and in case of a successful build&test the program should be deployed to the execution environment.

Since streaming programs run infinitely, the problem is to switch from the running program to the newly deployed. The CLI has some features that would make it possible (list, cancel). Is there another way of somehow restarting a streaming program? Do you have a suggested way for the deployment (automated!)?
