Apache RocketMQ[1], as a cloud-native messaging and streaming platform, has a large number of users [2] all over the world, especially in China.
Recently, more and more users have begun to use RocketMQ to integrate with Flink, which has resulted in a large number of issues[3] and PRs[4]. So, RocketMQ community contributors implemented a Connector for RocketMQ-Flink, which is now maintained in the Apache RocketMQ repository[5], So far, the connector is being used by cloud vendors as well as Internet companies. In order to attract more developers from the Flink community to participate in this Connector improvement, we hope to merge this connector back to the Flink repository[6], at the same time, we will continue to polish the existing implementation and add new features, such as table connector support, and welcome more and more developer to work together with us to improve this connector.
