Thank you! + +Let's dive into the highlights. + +# Standing on the Eve of Apache Flink 2.0 + +Flink 1.0 was released seven years ago. Since several months, the community is actively planning and taking steps towards +the next major release. The new 1.20 release is planned to be the last minor release before Flink 2.0, which is anticipated by the end of 2024. + +Start from Flink 1.19, the community has decided to officially deprecate multiple APIs that were approaching +end of life for a while. In 1.20, we further sorted through all relevant APIs that might need to be replaced +or deprecated to clear the way for the 2.0 release: +- Configuration Improvements: As Flink moves towards version 2.0, we have revisited all runtime & Table API/SQL +configuration options and identified several opportunities to enhance user-friendliness and maintainability. +- Deprecate the Legacy [SinkFunction](https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-release-1.20/api/java/org/apache/flink/streaming/api/functions/sink/SinkFunction.html) API: Since its introduction in Flink 1.12, the [Unified Sink API](https://nightlies.apache.org/flink/flink-docs-release-1.20/api/java/org/apache/flink/api/connector/sink2/Sink.html) +has undergone extensive development and testing. Over multiple release cycles, the API has demonstrated +stability and robustness, aligning with the criteria set forth in [FLIP-197](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-197%3A+API+stability+graduation+process) for API stability graduation.
