Re: Question on flink and hdfs

Hi Jerry, If you don't want to use Hadoop, simply pick _any_ Flink version. We recommend the Hadoop 1 version because it contains the least dependencies, i.e. you need to download less and the installation occupies less space. Other than that, it doesn't really matter if you don't use the HDFS

Re: Question on flink and hdfs

Hi Jerry, yes, that's possible. You can download the appropriate version https://flink.apache.org/downloads.html [image: Inline image 1] Cheers On Fri, Sep 4, 2015 at 1:57 AM, Jerry Peng wrote: > Hello, > > Does flink require hdfs to run? I know you can use hdfs

Question on flink and hdfs

Hello, Does flink require hdfs to run? I know you can use hdfs to checkpoint and process files in a distributed fashion. So can flink run standalone without hdfs?

Re: Question on flink and hdfs

Hi! Yes, you can run Flink completely without HDFS. Also the checkpointing can put state into any file system, like S3, or a Unix file system (like a NAS or Amazon EBS), or even Tachyon. Greetings, Stephan On Thu, Sep 3, 2015 at 8:57 PM, Jerry Peng wrote: >
