SystemClock (Flink : 2.0-SNAPSHOT API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.flink.util.clock.Clock
- - org.apache.flink.util.clock.SystemClock

All Implemented Interfaces:

RelativeClock
```
@PublicEvolving
public final class SystemClock
extends Clock
```
A clock that returns the time of the system / process.
This clock uses System.currentTimeMillis() for absolute time and System.nanoTime() for relative time.
This SystemClock exists as a singleton instance.
