Pravega Flink Connectors

This repository implements connectors to read and write Pravega Streams with Apache Flink stream processing framework.

The connectors can be used to build end-to-end stream processing pipelines (see Samples) that use Pravega as the stream storage and message bus, and Apache Flink for computation over the streams.

Features & Highlights

• Exactly-once processing guarantees for both Reader and Writer, supporting end-to-end exactly-once processing pipelines
• Seamless integration with Flink's checkpoints and savepoints.
• Parallel Readers and Writers supporting high throughput and low latency processing.
• Table API support to access Pravega Streams for both Batch and Streaming use case.

Compatibility Matrix

The master branch will always have the most recent supported versions of Flink and Pravega.

How to build

Building the connectors from the source is only necessary when we want to use or contribute to the latest (unreleased) version of the Pravega Flink connectors.

To build the project, Java version 11 is required and the repository needs to be checkout via git clone https://github.com/pravega/flink-connectors.git.

The connector project is linked to a specific version of Pravega, based on the pravegaVersion field in the gradle.properties.

After cloning the repository, the project can be built (excluding tests) by running the below command in the project root directory flink-connectors.

./gradlew clean build -x test

How to use
