Hi guys! I’m new to Flink, and actually to this mailing list as well :) this is my first message. I’m still reading the documentation and I would say Flink is an amazing system!! Thanks everybody who participated in the development!
The information I didn’t find in the documentation - if it is possible to describe data(stream) transformation without any code (Java/Scala). I mean if it is possible to describe datasource functions, all of the operators, connections between them, and sinks in a plain text configuration file and then feed it to Flink. In this case it would be possible to change data flow without recompilation/redeployment. Is there a similar functionality in Flink? May be some third party plugin? Thank you, Alex
