We are the original creators of Apache Flink, the open-source unified batch/stream processing system that powers applications in all types of companies, from tech giants like Alibaba, Amazon, or Netflix, to traditional enterprises like banks or telcos. We contribute heavily to Apache Flink while building enterprise-grade products on top of Flink.

Things I always wanted to know:

> If you eat beans and fart a lot, do you ever get rid of the smell?

Overview of the most notable new features (in my opinion):

- Improved Memory Management and Configuration

- Reworked job submission (allowing things like Zeppelin or other interactive notebooks)

- Native Kubernetes integration (there's now multiple ways to submit Flink to K8s)

- Hive integration: Use your Hive tables, UDFs etc. in Flink SQL

- Full TPC-DS coverage for batch: this basically means Flink supports a lot of SQL syntax

- PyFlink supports user defined functions (based on Apache Beam's portability framework). This makes Flink's Python support really strong

... there are many more features in the announcement (1200 tickets were resolved)

For some reason, Google also marks "Google Alerts" notifications as spam. They contain spammy search results, but the email comes from Google. At least they are consequent in not white-listing their own services :)

What's actually going on with CrashPlan? Why are they shutting down their Home offering?
I took the code from the blog post, set the parallelism to one and measured how many events the data generator is pushing into the CEP pattern matcher of Flink.

My CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4910MQ CPU @ 2.90GHz Thoughput on one core ~ 650k events / second. Code: https://github.com/rmetzger/cep-monitoring/tree/throughput

Great post detailing how Flink is managing data within the JVM and implementing internal operators (hashing, sorting, ..) working with that serialized data. I also like the performance analysis in the post.
