public interface FileRotationPolicy extends Serializable
Used by the HdfsBolt to decide when to rotate files.

The HdfsBolt will call the mark() method for every tuple received. If the mark() method returns true the HdfsBolt will perform a file rotation.

After file rotation, the HdfsBolt will call the reset() method.
