Shownotes Transcript

Integration is probably the last, hardest, and least well thought-out part of any large software project. So anything that makes the data-streaming job easier is worth knowing about. So this week we turn our attention to Apache Flink, a flexible system for grabbing, transforming and shipping data between systems using Java, Python or good ol’ SQL. So this week Robert Metzger—Apache Flink expert and PMC member—joins us to explain what problems Flink solves and how it solves them reliably. We cover the range from simple use cases to realtime aggregations & joins to its high availability strategy.

If you’re working on systems that include more than one database, then you’re definitely going to face the kinds of problems that Flink tackles.--Apache Flink: https://flink.apache.org/Robert on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rmetzger_)Robert on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/metzgerrobert/)Kris on Twitter: https://twitter.com/krisajenkins)Kris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/)
