Apache Flink Introduction Guide

[Manish Shukla]

Hi Guys,

I have contributed a blog post on Apache Flink introduction, architecture and execution model. Please provide the feedback:

I hope I have covered all the concepts correctly.

Hi Manish,

Appreciate the way you presented Apache Flink. While it's like an 'Intro' to beginners, I would really encourage you to highlight/present some of the groundbreaking features that flink offers towards stream processing like -

-> Explicit handling of time with it's notion of 'Event time' + 'Expressive and flexible windowing capabilities'

-> State management + Fault tolerance through it's light-weight checkpointing/snapshotting mechanism

-> Performance - in terms of low latency, throughput and back-pressure handling + comparative benchmarks with other engines in market.

Since, any person who reads the blog should not just take the text as a 'Hello World' to 'another new' technology in town but take it seriously as to how this is better and how it beats the contemporary processing engines so that the reader understands how important it is for him to delve deeper into the topic and expand his knowledge about Flink which is going to be the next most adopted engine in industry.

Regards,
Anchit
