I have exciting news to share 🥳 #ApacheKafka + #ApacheFlink = ❤️ #Confluent + #Immerok = ❤️ …with joint forces towards stream processing for everyone.

🎉 We’re excited to share our intent to acquire @Immerokcom! Together, we’ll build a cloud-native service for @apacheflink that delivers the same simplicity, security, & scalability that you expect from Confluent for Kafka. Learn more → cnfl.io/3jIsIYH

I finally started my engineering blog on Medium about what we build at @ConfluentInc. @ApacheFlink and #FlinkSQL at the core, a ton of abstractions around it for more productivity. Let me start simple by creating some tables ✌🏻 medium.com/confluent/flink-s…

🧨 The first cloud-native @ApacheFlink offering for all major clouds is now generally available 🥳 Creating real-time production pipelines will become easier every day across #AWS, #Azure and #GCP 🌤️. Strongly coupled with #ApacheKafka in @ConfluentInc Cloud💪

Took >3 years with @MarioFragkoulis, @SenorCarbone & @vkalavri to write a survey on the evolution of streaming systems in the last 20 years (@VLDBconf J.). Looking for a single point of reference for all things streaming systems research? It’s here: link.springer.com/article/10…

🐿️ #FlinkSQL will get new syntax in the CREATE TABLE statement. The @ApacheFlink community just approved the new DISTRIBUTED BY clause. Connectors that support the concept of bucketing can use this starting with Flink 1.19. cwiki.apache.org/confluence/…

Flying back home from #Current23 What an inspiring event, full of great people, talks and projects. 😍 We also did a short trip to Lake Tahoe with @twalthr. The Desolation Wilderness is just mind-blowing. One of the most beautiful places I’ve been to so far. 🤯

Lancaster, CA transformed its downtown in just 8 months by redesigning it's main street from a mini-highway to a tree-lined boulevard. For the cost of just $11.5M, the project has generated $273M in economic output since 2010, creating 800 jobs, and nearly doubling tax revenue!

Replying to @ApacheCalcite
@ApacheCalcite upgrade story in @ApacheFlink being continued. In Flink 1.17.x there were 1.27✅, 1.28✅, 1.29✅. In coming 1.18.x #FlinkSQL there will be another major upgrade: 1.30✅, 1.31✅, 1.32⏳... Feedback is highly appreciated if we unintentionally broke something. 🙏
