> Key: FLINK-35369
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-35369
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Project Website
> Affects Versions: 1.19.0
> Reporter: Keith Lee
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: LandscapeOfFlinkSQL.drawio(6).png
>
>
> Flink has rich and varied SQL offerings/deployment mode, it can take some
> time for new users to investigate and arrive at the right offering for them.
> Consider the available options:
> 1. Flink SQL Client (through SQL gateway, embedded or remote)
> 2. REST through SQL Gateway
> 3. A SQL client with Flink JDBC driver (through SQL gateway's REST interface)
> 4. A SQL client with Hive JDBC driver (through SQL gateway's HiveServer2
> interface)
> 5. Compile and submit through Flink Client (Java/Scala/Python)
> 6. Submitting packaged archive with code that uses Table API to JobManager
> REST endpoint
> (Additionally, Apache Zeppelin also provide notebook experience with its
> Flink SQL interpreter which builds upon Flink Client.)
> The improvement being suggested here is to either enrich existing [Table API
> and SQL overview
> page|https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-release-1.19/docs/dev/table/overview/]
> or create new page that contains the following information:
> 1. Diagram on the various options available (see diagram below)
> 2. Table explaining pros of each approach e.g. Flink SQL Client for initial
> experimentation, development, OLAP. Implementing on top of Flink SQL JDBC
> client or SQL Gateway REST for automation, HiveServer2 for inter-operabilty
> with Hive etc. The table will guide users to the corresponding page for each
> option. !LandscapeOfFlinkSQL.drawio(6).png!
