+      <h1>Stream Processing for Everyone with SQL and Apache Flink</h1>
+
+      <article>
+        <p>24 May 2016 by Fabian Hueske (<a 
href="https://twitter.com/fhueske";>@fhueske</a>)</p>
+
+<p>The capabilities of open source systems for distributed stream processing 
have evolved significantly over the last years. Initially, the first systems in 
the field (notably <a href="https://storm.apache.org";>Apache Storm</a>) 
provided low latency processing, but were limited to at-least-once guarantees, 
processing-time semantics, and rather low-level APIs. Since then, several new 
systems emerged and pushed the state of the art of open source stream 
processing in several dimensions. Today, users of Apache Flink or <a 
href="https://beam.incubator.apache.org";>Apache Beam</a> can use fluent Scala 
and Java APIs to implement stream processing jobs that operate in event-time 
with exactly-once semantics at high throughput and low latency.</p>
+
+<p>In the meantime, stream processing has taken off in the industry. We are 
witnessing a rapidly growing interest in stream processing which is reflected 
by prevalent deployments of streaming processing infrastructure such as <a 
href="https://kafka.apache.org";>Apache Kafka</a> and Apache Flink. The 
increasing number of available data streams results in a demand for people that 
can analyze streaming data and turn it into real-time insights. However, stream 
data analysis requires a special skill set including knowledge of streaming 
concepts such as the characteristics of unbounded streams, windows, time, and 
state as well as the skills to implement stream analysis jobs usually against 
Java or Scala APIs. People with this skill set are rare and hard to find.</p>
+
+<p>About six months ago, the Apache Flink community started an effort to add a 
SQL interface for stream data analysis. SQL is <em>the</em> standard language 
to access and process data. Everybody who occasionally analyzes data is 
familiar with SQL. Consequently, a SQL interface for stream data processing 
will make this technology accessible to a much wider audience. Moreover, SQL 
support for streaming data will also enable new use cases such as interactive 
and ad-hoc stream analysis and significantly simplify many applications 
including stream ingestion and simple transformations. In this blog post, we 
report on the current status, architectural design, and future plans of the 
Apache Flink community to implement support for SQL as a language for analyzing 
data streams.</p>

+
+<p>With the <a 
href="http://flink.apache.org/news/2015/04/13/release-0.9.0-milestone1.html";>0.9.0-milestone1</a>
 release, Apache Flink added an API to process relational data with SQL-like 
expressions called the Table API. The central concept of this API is a Table, a 
structured data set or stream on which relational operations can be applied. 
The Table API is tightly integrated with the DataSet and DataStream API. A 
Table can be easily created from a DataSet or DataStream and can also be 
converted back into a DataSet or DataStream as the following example shows</p>

+
+<p>Although the example shows Scala code, there is also an equivalent Java 
version of the Table API. The following picture depicts the original 
architecture of the Table API.</p>
+
+<center>
+<img src="/img/blog/stream-sql/old-table-api.png" 
style="width:75%;margin:15px" />
+</center>
+
+<p>A Table is created from a DataSet or DataStream and transformed into a new 
Table by applying relational transformations such as <code>filter</code>, 
<code>join</code>, or <code>select</code> on them. Internally, a logical table 
operator tree is constructed from the applied Table transformations. When a 
Table is translated back into a DataSet or DataStream, the respective 
translator translates the logical operator tree into DataSet or DataStream 
operators. Expressions like <code>'location.like("room%")</code> are compiled 
into Flink functions via code generation.</p>
+
+<p>However, the original Table API had a few limitations. First of all, it 
could not stand alone. Table API queries had to be always embedded into a 
DataSet or DataStream program. Queries against batch Tables did not support 
outer joins, sorting, and many scalar functions which are commonly used in SQL 
queries. Queries against streaming tables only supported filters, union, and 
projections and no aggregations or joins. Also, the translation process did not 
leverage query optimization techniques except for the physical optimization 
that is applied to all DataSet programs.</p>
+
+<h2 id="table-api-joining-forces-with-sql">Table API joining forces with 
SQL</h2>
+
+<p>The discussion about adding support for SQL came up a few times in the 
Flink community. With Flink 0.9 and the availability of the Table API, code 
generation for relational expressions, and runtime operators, the foundation 
for such an extension seemed to be there and SQL support the next logical step. 
On the other hand, the community was also well aware of the multitude of 
dedicated “SQL-on-Hadoop” solutions in the open source landscape (<a 
href="https://hive.apache.org";>Apache Hive</a>, <a 
href="https://drill.apache.org";>Apache Drill</a>, <a 
href="http://impala.io";>Apache Impala</a>, <a 
href="https://tajo.apache.org";>Apache Tajo</a>, just to name a few). Given 
these alternatives, we figured that time would be better spent improving Flink 
in other ways than implementing yet another SQL-on-Hadoop solution.</p>
+
+<p>However, with the growing popularity of stream processing and the 
increasing adoption of Flink in this area, the Flink community saw the need for 
a simpler API to enable more users to analyze streaming data. About half a year 
ago, we decided to take the Table API to the next level, extend the stream 
processing capabilities of the Table API, and add support for SQL on streaming 
data. What we came up with was a revised architecture for a Table API that 
supports SQL (and Table API) queries on streaming and static data sources. We 
did not want to reinvent the wheel and decided to build the new Table API on 
top of <a href="https://calcite.apache.org";>Apache Calcite</a>, a popular SQL 
parser and optimizer framework. Apache Calcite is used by many projects 
including Apache Hive, Apache Drill, Cascading, and many <a 
href="https://calcite.apache.org/docs/powered_by.html";>more</a>. Moreover, the 
Calcite community put <a href="https://calcite.apache.org/docs/stream.html";>SQL 
on streams</a> 
 on their roadmap which makes it a perfect fit for Flink’s SQL interface.</p>
+
+<p>Calcite is central in the new design as the following architecture sketch 
shows:</p>
+
+<center>
+<img src="/img/blog/stream-sql/new-table-api.png" 
style="width:75%;margin:15px" />
+</center>
+
+<p>The new architecture features two integrated APIs to specify relational 
queries, the Table API and SQL. Queries of both APIs are validated against a 
catalog of registered tables and converted into Calcite’s representation for 
logical plans. In this representation, stream and batch queries look exactly 
the same. Next, Calcite’s cost-based optimizer applies transformation rules 
and optimizes the logical plans. Depending on the nature of the sources 
(streaming or static) we use different rule sets. Finally, the optimized plan 
is translated into a regular Flink DataStream or DataSet program. This step 
involves again code generation to compile relational expressions into Flink 
functions.</p>
+
+<p>The new architecture of the Table API maintains the basic principles of the 
original Table API and improves it. It keeps a uniform interface for relational 
queries on streaming and static data. In addition, we take advantage of 
Calcite’s query optimization framework and SQL parser. The design builds upon 
Flink’s established APIs, i.e., the DataStream API that offers low-latency, 
high-throughput stream processing with exactly-once semantics and consistent 
results due to event-time processing, and the DataSet API with robust and 
efficient in-memory operators and pipelined data exchange. Any improvements to 
Flink’s core APIs and engine will automatically improve the execution of 
Table API and SQL queries.</p>
+
+<p>With this effort, we are adding SQL support for both streaming and static 
data to Flink. However, we do not want to see this as a competing solution to 
dedicated, high-performance SQL-on-Hadoop solutions, such as Impala, Drill, and 
Hive. Instead, we see the sweet spot of Flink’s SQL integration primarily in 
providing access to streaming analytics to a wider audience. In addition, it 
will facilitate integrated applications that use Flink’s API’s as well as 
SQL while being executed on a single runtime engine.</p>
+
+<h2 id="how-will-flinks-sql-on-streams-look-like">How will Flink’s SQL on 
streams look like?</h2>
+
+<p>So far we discussed the motivation for and architecture of Flink’s stream 
SQL interface, but how will it actually look like? The new SQL interface is 
integrated into the Table API. DataStreams, DataSets, and external data sources 
can be registered as tables at the <code>TableEnvironment</code> in order to 
make them queryable with SQL. The <code>TableEnvironment.sql()</code> method 
states a SQL query and returns its result as a Table. The following example 
shows a complete program that reads a streaming table from a JSON encoded Kafka 
topic, processes it with a SQL query and writes the resulting stream into 
another Kafka topic. Please note that the KafkaJsonSource and KafkaJsonSink are 
under development and not available yet. In the future, TableSources and 
TableSinks can be persisted to and loaded from files to ease reuse of source 
and sink definitions and to reduce boilerplate code.</p>

aspects of stream data processing: window aggregates and joins. How will these 
operations be expressed in SQL? Well, that is a very good question. The Apache 
Calcite community put out an excellent proposal that discusses the syntax and 
semantics of <a href="https://calcite.apache.org/docs/stream.html";>SQL on 
streams</a>. It describes Calcite’s stream SQL as <em>“an extension to 
standard SQL, not another ‘SQL-like’ language”</em>. This has several 
benefits. First, people who are familiar with standard SQL will be able to 
analyze data streams without learning a new syntax. Queries on static tables 
and streams are (almost) identical and can be easily ported. Moreover it is 
possible to specify queries that reference static and streaming tables at the 
same time which goes well together with Flink’s vision to handle batch 
processing as a special case of stream processing, i.e., as processing finite 
strea
 ms. Finally, using standard SQL for stream data analysis means following a 
well established standard that is supported by many tools.</p>
+
+<p>Although we haven’t completely fleshed out the details of how windows 
will be defined in Flink’s SQL syntax and Table API, the following examples 
show how a tumbling window query could look like in SQL and the Table API.</p>

+<h2 id="whats-up-next">What’s up next?</h2>
+
+<p>The Flink community is actively working on SQL support for the next minor 
version Flink 1.1.0. In the first version, SQL (and Table API) queries on 
streams will be limited to selection, filter, and union operators. Compared to 
Flink 1.0.0, the revised Table API will support many more scalar functions and 
be able to read tables from external sources and write them back to external 
sinks. A lot of work went into reworking the architecture of the Table API and 
integrating Apache Calcite.</p>
+
+<p>In Flink 1.2.0, the feature set of SQL on streams will be significantly 
extended. Among other things, we plan to support different types of window 
aggregates and maybe also streaming joins. For this effort, we want to closely 
collaborate with the Apache Calcite community and help extending Calcite’s 
support for relational operations on streaming data when necessary.</p>
+
+<p>If this post made you curious and you want to try out Flink’s SQL 
interface and the new Table API, we encourage you to do so! Simply clone the 
SNAPSHOT <a href="https://github.com/apache/flink/tree/master";>master 
branch</a> and check out the <a 
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/apis/table.html";>Table
 API documentation for the SNAPSHOT version</a>. Please note that the branch is 
under heavy development, and hence some code examples in this blog post might 
not work. We are looking forward to your feedback and welcome contributions.</p>

+
+      <article>
+        <p>08 Aug 2016</p>
+
+<div class="alert alert-success"><strong>Important</strong>: The Maven 
artifacts published with version 1.1.0 on Maven central have a Hadoop 
dependency issue. It is highly recommended to use <strong>1.1.1</strong> or 
<strong>1.1.1-hadoop1</strong> as the Flink version.</div>
+
+<p>The Apache Flink community is pleased to announce the availability of Flink 
1.1.0.</p>
+
+<p>This release is the first major release in the 1.X.X series of releases, 
which maintains API compatibility with 1.0.0. This means that your applications 
written against stable APIs of Flink 1.0.0 will compile and run with Flink 
1.1.0. 95 contributors provided bug fixes, improvements, and new features such 
that in total more than 450 JIRA issues could be resolved. See the <a 
href="/blog/release_1.1.0-changelog.html">complete changelog</a> for more 
details.</p>
+
+<p><strong>We encourage everyone to <a 
href="http://flink.apache.org/downloads.html";>download the release</a> and <a 
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.1/";>check out 
the documentation</a>. Feedback through the Flink <a 
href="http://flink.apache.org/community.html#mailing-lists";>mailing lists</a> 
is, as always, very welcome!</strong></p>
+
+<p>Some highlights of the release are listed in the following sections.</p>
+
+<h2 id="connectors">Connectors</h2>
+
+<p>The <a 
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.1/apis/streaming/connectors/index.html";>streaming
 connectors</a> are a major part of Flink’s DataStream API. This release adds 
support for new external systems and further improves on the available 
connectors.</p>
+
+<h3 id="continuous-file-system-sources">Continuous File System Sources</h3>
+
+<p>A frequently requested feature for Flink 1.0 was to be able to monitor 
directories and process files continuously. Flink 1.1 now adds support for this 
via <code>FileProcessingMode</code>s:</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-java"><span

+
+<p>This will monitor <code>hdfs:///file-path</code> every <code>5000</code> 
milliseconds. Check out the <a

 documentation for more details</a>.</p>
+
+<h3 id="kinesis-source-and-sink">Kinesis Source and Sink</h3>
+
+<p>Flink 1.1 adds a Kinesis connector for both consuming 
(<code>FlinkKinesisConsumer</code>) from and producing 
(<code>FlinkKinesisProduer</code>) to <a 
href="https://aws.amazon.com/kinesis/";>Amazon Kinesis Streams</a>, which is a 
managed service purpose-built to make it easy to work with streaming data on 
AWS.</p>

+
+<h3 id="cassandra-sink">Cassandra Sink</h3>
+
+<p>The <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted";>Apache 
Cassandra</a> sink allows you to write from Flink to Cassandra. Flink can 
provide exactly-once guarantees if the query is idempotent, meaning it can be 
applied multiple times without changing the result.</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-java"><span

 Sink documentation for more details</a>.</p>
+
+<h2 id="table-api-and-sql">Table API and SQL</h2>
+
+<p>The Table API is a SQL-like expression language for relational stream and 
batch processing that can be easily embedded in Flink’s DataSet and 
DataStream APIs (for both Java and Scala).</p>

+<p>An initial version of this API was already available in Flink 1.0. For 
Flink 1.1, the community put a lot of work into reworking the architecture of 
the Table API and integrating it with <a 
href="https://calcite.apache.org";>Apache Calcite</a>.</p>
+
+<p>In this first version, SQL (and Table API) queries on streams are limited 
to selection, filter, and union operators. Compared to Flink 1.0, the revised 
Table API supports many more scalar functions and is able to read tables from 
external sources and write them back to external sinks.</p>

+<h2 id="datastream-api">DataStream API</h2>
+
+<p>The DataStream API now exposes <strong>session windows</strong> and 
<strong>allowed lateness</strong> as first-class citizens.</p>
+
+<h3 id="session-windows">Session Windows</h3>
+
+<p>Session windows are ideal for cases where the window boundaries need to 
adjust to the incoming data. This enables you to have windows that start at 
individual points in time for each key and that end once there has been a 
<em>certain period of inactivity</em>. The configuration parameter is the 
session gap that specifies how long to wait for new data before considering a 
session as closed.</p>

class="o">&gt;);</span></code></pre></div>
+
+<h3 id="support-for-late-elements">Support for Late Elements</h3>
+
+<p>You can now specify how a windowed transformation should deal with late 
elements and how much lateness is allowed. The parameter for this is called 
<em>allowed lateness</em>. This specifies by how much time elements can be 
late.</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-java"><span 
class="n">input</span><span class="o">.</span><span 
class="na">keyBy</span><span class="o">(&lt;</span><span class="n">key</span> 
<span class="n">selector</span><span class="o">&gt;).</span><span 
class="na">window</span><span class="o">(&lt;</span><span

class="n">transformation</span><span class="o">&gt;(&lt;</span><span 
class="n">window</span> <span class="n">function</span><span 
class="o">&gt;);</span></code></pre></div>
+
+<p>Elements that arrive within the allowed lateness are still put into windows 
and are considered when computing window results. If elements arrive after the 
allowed lateness they will be dropped. Flink will also make sure that any state 
held by the windowing operation is garbage collected once the watermark passes 
the end of a window plus the allowed lateness.</p>

+
+<h2 id="scala-api-for-complex-event-processing-cep">Scala API for Complex 
Event Processing (CEP)</h2>
+
+<p>Flink 1.0 added the initial version of the CEP library. The core of the 
library is a Pattern API, which allows you to easily specify patterns to match 
against in your event stream. While in Flink 1.0 this API was only available 
for Java, Flink 1.1. now exposes the same API for Scala, allowing you to 
specify your event patterns in a more concise manner.</p>
+
+<p>A more detailed introduction can be found in the <a 
href="http://flink.apache.org/news/2016/04/06/cep-monitoring.html";>Flink 
blog</a> and the <a

 documentation</a>.</p>
+
+<h2 id="graph-generators-and-new-gelly-library-algorithms">Graph generators 
and new Gelly library algorithms</h2>
+
+<p>This release includes many enhancements and new features for graph 
processing. Gelly now provides a collection of scalable graph generators for 
common graph types, such as complete, cycle, grid, hypercube, and RMat graphs. 
A variety of new graph algorithms have been added to the Gelly library, 
including Global and Local Clustering Coefficient, HITS, and similarity 
measures (Jaccard and Adamic-Adar).</p>
+
+<p>For a full list of new graph processing features, check out the <a 
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.1/apis/batch/libs/gelly.html";>Gelly
 documentation</a>.</p>
+
+<h2 id="metrics">Metrics</h2>
+
+<p>Flink’s new metrics system allows you to easily gather and expose metrics 
from your user application to external systems. You can add counters, gauges, 
and histograms to your application via the runtime context:</p>
+
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-java"><span 
class="n">Counter</span> <span class="n">counter</span> <span 
class="o">=</span> <span class="n">getRuntimeContext</span><span

+  <span class="o">.</span><span class="na">getMetricGroup</span><span

+  <span class="o">.</span><span class="na">counter</span><span 
class="o">(</span><span class="s">&quot;my-counter&quot;</span><span 
class="o">);</span></code></pre></div>
+
+<p>All registered metrics will be exposed via reporters. Out of the box, 
Flinks comes with support for JMX, Ganglia, Graphite, and statsD. In addition 
to your custom metrics, Flink exposes many internal metrics like checkpoint 
sizes and JVM stats.</p>

+      <h1>Flink 1.1.1 Released</h1>
+
+      <article>
+        <p>11 Aug 2016</p>
+
+<p>Today, the Flink community released Flink version 1.1.1.</p>
+
+<p>The Maven artifacts published on Maven central for 1.1.0 had a Hadoop 
dependency issue: No Hadoop 1 specific version (with version 1.1.0-hadoop1) was 
deployed and 1.1.0 artifacts have a dependency on Hadoop 1 instead of Hadoop 
2.</p>
+
+<p>This was fixed with this release and we <strong>highly recommend</strong> 
all users to use this version of Flink by bumping your Flink dependencies to 
version 1.1.1:</p>

Discussion</h1>
+
+      <article>
+        <p>24 Aug 2016</p>
+
+<p>An update for the Flink community: the <a 
href="http://flink-forward.org/kb_day/day-1/";>Flink Forward 2016 schedule</a> 
is now available online. This year's event will include 2 days of talks from 
stream processing experts at Google, MapR, Alibaba, Netflix, Cloudera, and 
more. Following the talks is a full day of hands-on Flink training.</p>
+
+<p>Ted Dunning has been announced as a keynote speaker at the event. Ted is 
the VP of Incubator at <a href="http://www.apache.org";>Apache Software 
Foundation</a>, the Chief Application Architect at <a 
href="http://www.mapr.com";>MapR Technologies</a>, and a mentor on many recent 
projects. He'll present <a 
href="http://flink-forward.org/kb_sessions/keynote-tba/";>"How Can We Take Flink 
Forward?"</a> on the second day of the conference.</p>
+
+<p>Following Ted's keynote there will be a panel discussion on <a 
href="http://flink-forward.org/kb_sessions/panel-large-scale-streaming-in-production/";>"Large
 Scale Streaming in Production"</a>. As stream processing systems become more 
mainstream, companies are looking to empower their users to take advantage of 
this technology. We welcome leading stream processing experts Xiaowei Jiang <a 
href="http://www.alibaba.com";>(Alibaba)</a>, Monal Daxini <a 
href="http://www.netflix.com";>(Netflix)</a>, Maxim Fateev <a 
href="http://www.uber.com";>(Uber)</a>, and Ted Dunning <a 
href="http://www.mapr.com";>(MapR Technologies)</a> on stage to talk about the 
challenges they have faced and the solutions they have discovered while 
implementing stream processing systems at very large scale. The panel will be 
moderated by Jamie Grier <a href="http://www.data-artisans.com";>(data 
Artisans)</a>.</p>
+
+<p>The welcome keynote on Monday, September 12, will be presented by data 
Artisans' co-founders Kostas Tzoumas and Stephan Ewen. They will talk about <a 
href="http://flink-forward.org/kb_sessions/keynote-tba-2/";>"The maturing data 
streaming ecosystem and Apache Flink’s accelerated growth"</a>. In this talk, 
Kostas and Stephan discuss several large-scale stream processing use cases that 
the data Artisans team has seen over the past year.</p>
+
+<p>And one more recent addition to the program: Maxim Fateev of Uber will 
present <a 
href="http://flink-forward.org/kb_sessions/beyond-the-watermark-on-demand-backfilling-in-flink/";>"Beyond
 the Watermark: On-Demand Backfilling in Flink"</a>. Flink’s time-progress 
model is built around a single watermark, which is incompatible with Uber’s 
business need for generating aggregates retroactively. Maxim's talk covers 
Uber's solution for on-demand backfilling.</p>
+
+<p>We hope to see many community members at Flink Forward 2016. Registration 
is available online: <a
