Apache Flink
Let's have an introduction to Apache Flink and look into its architecture.
Apache Flink is an open-source stream-processing framework developed by
Note: This is the main differentiator between Flink and Spark. Flink processes incoming data as they arrive, which provides sub-second latency that can go down to single-digit millisecond latency. Spark also provides a streaming engine called Spark Streaming. However, that is running some form of micro-batch processing, where an input data stream is split into batches, which are then processed to generate the final results with the associated latency trade-off.
