Hello David,

This is a nice move. Im pretty sure the more the resources at one place the better it is for reference, especially for starters.

Thanks,

Hemant

Dear Flink Community!

For some time now Ververica has been hosting some freely available Apache Flink training materials at https://training.ververica.com. This includes tutorial content covering the core concepts of the DataStream API, and hands-on exercises that accompany those explanations.

Website: https://training.ververica.com
Website repo: https://github.com/dataArtisans/flink-training
Exercises: repo: https://github.com/ververica/flink-training-exercises

We would like to contribute this training content to Apache Flink. By doing so, we hope to make it even easier for folks to get started with Flink. Especially during this time when so many are working from home, we'd like to get this self-paced training course out where more people will see it.

If the community wants these training materials, then this also raises the question of where to put them. We are thinking it would be best to integrate the website content into flink.apache.org, and to add the exercises to flink-playgrounds -- but these points can be discussed separately once we've established that the community wants this content.

Looking forward to hearing what you think!

Best regards,
David
