Hi Alex,

thanks for bringing this topic up. So far the Flink project does not use a
static code analysis tool but I think it can strongly benefit from it
(simply by looking at the reported bugs). There was a previous discussion
about enabling the ASF Sonarcube integration for Flink [1] but it was never
put into reality. There is also an integration for Travis which might be
interesting to look into [2]. I would be in favour of enabling this.

Cheers,
Till
