Hi Hanna, I would certainly recommend if you haven’t so far to check the official docs of Flink at flink.apache.org. The documentation is comprehensive and understandable.
From that point, I would recommend the following blog posts and academic papers: Apache Flink: Stream and Batch Processing in a Single Engine - http://sites.computer.org/debull/A15dec/p28.pdf Lightweight Asynchronous Snapshots for Distributed Dataflows - https://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.08603v1.pdf https://flink.apache.org/news/2015/05/11/Juggling-with-Bits-and-Bytes.html https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/Data+exchange+between+tasks https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/internals/job_scheduling.html In addition to, I would suggest you to read the Realtime Data Processing at Facebook paper describing some of the important characteristics of stream processing engines generally applicable to Flink as well.
