Hello, I am currently trying to develop am algorithm mining frequent item sets over a data stream. I am using kafka to generate the stream, however I cannot manage to link Flink to Kafka.
The code presented here is working but only using Flink version 0.9.1 https://github.com/dataArtisans/kafka-example/blob/master/src/main/java/com/dataartisans/ReadFromKafka.java It doesn’t work for me when using FLink 10-SNAPSHOT or the latest release. I tried several other things and was hoping someone could help me understand the differences between kafkaSource, FlinkKafkaConsummer, FlinkKafkaConsummer081 and FlinkKafkaConsummer082. Which one is the latest API ? Is there another way to consume Kafka steam with Flink that is even more up to date ? Or should I use FlinkKafkaConsummer082 and stay with Flink version 9 ? Thank you for your help. Regards, Tanguy R.
