/**
*
* Optional interface for {@link Partitioner} implementations that need to use a
* custom naming scheme for partitions. It is not necessary to implement this
* interface if a partitioner extends {@link SimplePartitioner} and re-uses the
* default partition names.
*
*
* If a partitioner does implement this interface, however, on a restart the
* {@link Partitioner#partition(int)} method will not be called again, instead
* the partitions will be re-used from the last execution, and matched by name
* with the results of {@link PartitionNameProvider#getPartitionNames(int)}.
* This can be a useful performance optimisation if the partitioning process is
* expensive.
