------------------------------------
Summary: Add Flink Web3 Connector
Key: FLINK-30445
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-30445
Project: Flink
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Connectors / ORC
Reporter: Junyao Huang
Web3 is very hot. But you could search GitHub open source blockchain explorer,
the most stars project is blockscout,
[https://github.com/blockscout/blockscout,] which use Elixir as a parallel
engine to sync block from blockchain node into a file(CSV format). I think
Flink is the best solution of ingestion. Reason:
(1)blockchain needs to match different chain, including Ethereum, Bitcoin,
Solana, etc. through JSON RPC.
(2)Like EtherScan, the blockchain needs to fetch the latest block into storage
for the index to search.
(3)Also as a supplement to (2), we need a connector to fully sync all block
from Blockchain Node. I think Flink Stream/Batch alignment feature is suit for
this scenarios.
