Hi,

I am a product manager for Kinesis Data Analytics, AWS’s managed service for 
Apache Flink. I’m creating this thread to gauge community interest in 
redesigning the Flink website: https://flink.apache.org/.
A few of our customers have provided feedback that the Apache Flink website 
looks dated. One customer claimed that the website looks “unwelcoming” and 
lacks useful graphics and colors. Another said it looks “like a wiki page 
thrown together by developers.” Customers also point out other related Apache 
project websites: https://spark.apache.org/ and https://kafka.apache.org/ as 
having “modern” user design. Many were surprised to hear that Flink has been a 
top-5 Apache project for several years now.
As https://flink.apache.org/ is likely the first page someone new to Flink 
encounters, it will be helpful to modernize the look and feel of the website. 
Given the growing interest in Flink, we have an opportunity to make content and 
features visible and easily accessible to customers. I’d like to learn if this 
is an idea we should pursue. I can create a FLIP if there is interest.
Thanks,
Deepthi Mohan
