It's an open-source framework for building event-driven streaming agents that can operate with scalability, reliability, and real-time responsiveness. + +### Why Apache Flink Agents Matters + Review Comment: Suggested edit: While AI agents have made rapid progress in interactive applications like chatbots and copilots, these systems typically operate in synchronous, one-off interactions. Many business use cases cannot wait for a user to prompt them into action. In industrial settings such as e-commerce, finance, IoT, and logistics, critical decisions must be made instantly in response to live events like a payment failure, a sensor anomaly, or a user click. To succeed in production, enterprise agents must be capable of: - Operating on live, high-volume event streams such as transactions, sensor anomalies, or user clicks. - Running continuously and autonomously, not only when prompted. - Guaranteeing safety, auditability, and recovery when something goes wrong. These workloads require more than intelligence alone. They demand massive scale, millisecond latency, fault tolerance, and stateful coordination. These are exactly the strengths of Apache Flink. Until now, there has been no unified framework to bring agentic AI patterns into Flink’s proven streaming ecosystem. Apache Flink Agents bridges this gap by treating agents as event-driven microservices that are always-on, reliable, and scalable. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
