Description

Currently the StreamingFileSink has Builder pattern and the actual constructor of StreamingFileSink is private. This makes it hard to extend the class to built on top of this and customize the sink. (Example: Adding new metrics). Proposing to make this protected as well as protected for the Builder interface.
