Hi Flavio,

Currently most of the Flink AI efforts are in ecosystem projects. Primarily
flink-ai-extended[1] and Alink[2] as you noticed.

- flink-ai-extended aims to provide a solution to unify big data and AI
(especially deep learning) based on Flink.
- Alink is a classic machine learning library.

We have seen some unique values of these projects in scenarios such as
realtime machine learning, as well as unifying the online/offline systems.
That said, because Flink AI is still kind of new and we are still exploring
many things. We would like to wait a little bit until the APIs are more
stable before putting them into Apache Flink.

Thanks,

Jiangjie (Becket) Qin
