• Key Concepts: 
  Auto checkpoint is a feature of SAP Event Stream Processor (ESP) that allows for the automatic saving of the state of a job or process. This feature ensures that if a job or process fails, it can be restarted from the point of failure without having to start from the beginning. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Auto checkpoint can be enabled in ESP by setting the auto checkpoint flag to true in the job configuration. This will enable auto checkpointing for all jobs and processes within the job. The frequency of checkpoints can also be configured, allowing for more frequent checkpoints if desired. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using auto checkpoint, it is important to ensure that the checkpoints are being saved in a reliable location. If the checkpoints are not saved in a reliable location, then they may not be available if a job or process fails and needs to be restarted.
