I would recommend the training exercises by data Artisans [1]. They have challenging exercises and also nice solutions in Java and Scala.

Flink's end-to-end test also contain a lot of good example code [2].

I hope this helps.

Hi Timo,

Thank you... I am not very good with the MapFunction and trying to find an example. Will hack at it a bit. 

Appreciate your help.

Hi Steve,

if you are ok with using the DataStream API you can simply use a map() function [1] and call row.toString(). However, usually people want custom logic to construct a string. This logic could either be in SQL using the concat operator `||` or in the DataStream API.

I have created a project to use SQL but instead of printing the output as below I need the output in a STRING so I can write it to a dynamoDB table.

How do I convert this "result" to a STRING or is there a suggestion of some other way I should sink to dynamoDB?  Any example code would REALLY help. THANKS!!

Table result = tableEnv.sql("SELECT 'Alert ',t_sKey, t_deviceID, t_sValue FROM SENSORS WHERE t_sKey='TEMPERATURE' AND t_sValue > " + TEMPERATURE_THRESHOLD);
tableEnv.toAppendStream(result, Row.class).print();

Any assistance would be very appreciated.

Thanks
