------------------------------------------
Summary: Flink Kinesis connector - remove dependency on the ASL
code
Key: FLINK-7673
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7673
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Radoslaw Gruchalski
Currently the Flink Kinesis connector depends on two artifacts which are
available under Amazon Software License code. The artifacts are:
{noformat}
<dependency>
<groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
<artifactId>amazon-kinesis-producer</artifactId>
<version>${aws.kinesis-kpl.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
<artifactId>amazon-kinesis-client</artifactId>
<version>${aws.kinesis-kcl.version}</version>
<!--
We're excluding the below from the KCL since
we'll only be using the
com.amazonaws.services.kinesis.clientlibrary.types.UserRecord class, which will
not need these dependencies.
-->
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
<artifactId>aws-java-sdk-dynamodb</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
<artifactId>aws-java-sdk-cloudwatch</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
{/noformat}
This prevents the connector being published to Maven Central. I would like to
contribute to Flink Kinesis connector by replacing the ASL licensed code with
an implementation using AWS SDK for Java. For that, I'd like to understand two
things:
- what's the correct process for making the contribution (contributor
agreement, etc.)
- what's the minimum functionality the alternative implementation would have to
provide in order to get accepted
Thank you.
