+<title>Flink Community Update - September'19</title>
+<description><p>This has been an exciting, fast-paced year for the
Apache Flink community. But with over 10k messages across the mailing lists, 3k
Jira tickets and 2k pull requests, it is not easy to keep up with the latest
state of the project. Plus everything happening around it. With that in mind,
we want to bring back regular community updates to the Flink blog.</p>
+
+<p>The first post in the series takes you on an little detour across the
year, to freshen up and make sure you’re all up to date.</p>

+<p>Two major versions were released this year: <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/news/2019/04/09/release-1.8.0.html">Flink
1.8</a> and <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/news/2019/08/22/release-1.9.0.html">Flink
1.9</a>; paving the way for the goal of making Flink the first framework
to seamlessly support stream and batch processing with a single, unified
runtime. The <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/news/2019/02/13/unified-batch- [...]
+
+<p>The 1.9 release was the result of the <strong>biggest community
effort the project has experienced so far</strong>, with the number of
contributors soaring to 190 (see <a
href="#the-bigger-picture">The Bigger Picture</a>). For a
quick overview of the upcoming work for Flink 1.10 (and beyond), have a look at
the updated <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/roadmap.html">roadmap</a>!</p>
+
+<h2
id="integration-of-the-chinese-speaking-community">Integration of
the Chinese-speaking community</h2>
+
+<p>As the number of Chinese-speaking Flink users rapidly grows, the
community is working on translating resources and creating dedicated spaces for
discussion to invite and include these users in the wider Flink community. Part
of the ongoing work is described in <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-35%3A+Support+Chinese+Documents+and+Website">FLIP-35</a>
and has resulted in:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>A new user mailing list (user-zh@f.a.o) dedicated to
Chinese-speakers.</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>A Chinese translation of the Apache Flink <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/zh/">website</a> and <a
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/zh/">documentation</a>.</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Multiple meetups organized all over China, with the biggest one
reaching a whopping number of 500+ participants. Some of these meetups were
also organized in collaboration with communities from other projects, like
Apache Pulsar and Apache Kafka.</li>
+</ul>

+<p>In case you’re interested in knowing more about this work in
progress, Robert Metzger and Fabian Hueske will be diving into “Inviting Apache
Flink’s Chinese User Community” at the upcoming ApacheCon Europe 2019 (see
<a href="#upcoming-flink-community-events">Upcoming Flink
Community Events</a>).</p>
+
+<h2 id="flink-documentation-20">Flink Documentation
2.0</h2>
+
+<p>Besides the translation effort, the community has also been working
quite hard on a <strong>Flink docs overhaul</strong>. The main
goals are to:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Organize and clean-up the structure of the docs;</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Align the content with the overall direction of the
project;</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Improve the <em>getting-started</em> material and make
the content more accessible to different levels of Flink experience.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Given that there has been some confusion in the past regarding
unclear definition of core Flink concepts, one of the first completed efforts
was to introduce a <a
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.9/concepts/glossary.html#glossary">Glossary</a>
in the docs. To get up to speed with the roadmap for the remainder efforts,

of the Contribution Process and Experience</h2>
+
+<p>The <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/contributing/how-to-contribute.html">guidelines</a>
to contribute to Apache Flink have been reworked on the website, in an effort
to lower the entry barrier for new contributors and reduce the overall friction
in the contribution process. In addition, the Flink community discussed and
adopted <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=120731026">bylaws</a>
to help the [...]
+
+<p>For code contributors, a <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/contributing/code-style-and-quality-preamble.html">Code
Style and Quality Guide</a> that captures the expected standards for
contributions was also added to the “Contributing” section of the Flink
website.</p>
+
+<p>It’s important to stress that <strong>contributions are not
restricted to code</strong>. Non-code contributions such as mailing list
support, documentation work or organization of community events are equally as
important to the development of the project and highly encouraged.</p>
+
+<h2 id="new-committers-and-pmc-members">New Committers and PMC
Members</h2>
+
+<p>The Apache Flink community has welcomed <strong>5 new
Committers</strong> and <strong>4 PMC (Project Management
Committee) Members</strong> in 2019, so far:</p>

+<p>Congratulations and thank you for your hardworking commitment to
Flink!</p>
+
+<h1 id="the-bigger-picture">The Bigger Picture</h1>
+
+<p>Flink continues to push the boundaries of (stream) data processing,
and the community is proud to see an ever-increasingly diverse set of
contributors, users and technologies join the ecosystem.</p>
+
+<p>In the timeframe of three releases, the project jumped from
<strong>112 to 190 contributors</strong>, also doubling down on the
number of requested changes and improvements. To top it off, the Flink GitHub
repository recently reached the milestone of <strong>10k
stars</strong>, all the way up from the incubation days in 2014.</p>

+
+<p>The activity across the user@ and dev@<sup>1</sup>
mailing lists shows a healthy heartbeat, and the gradual ramp up of user-zh@
suggests that this was a well-received community effort. Looking at the numbers
for the same period in 2018, the dev@ mailing list has seen the biggest surge
in activity, with an average growth of <strong>2.5x in the number of
messages and distinct users</strong> — a great reflection of the
hyperactive pace of development of the [...]

+
+<p>In support of these observations, the report for the financial year
of 2019 from the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) features Flink as one of the
most thriving open source projects, with mentions for:</p>

+
+<p>This has been an exciting, fast-paced year for the Apache Flink community.
But with over 10k messages across the mailing lists, 3k Jira tickets and 2k
pull requests, it is not easy to keep up with the latest state of the project.
Plus everything happening around it. With that in mind, we want to bring back
regular community updates to the Flink blog.</p>
+
+<p>The first post in the series takes you on an little detour across the year,
to freshen up and make sure you’re all up to date.</p>

+
+<p>Two major versions were released this year: <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/news/2019/04/09/release-1.8.0.html";>Flink
1.8</a> and <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/news/2019/08/22/release-1.9.0.html";>Flink
1.9</a>; paving the way for the goal of making Flink the first framework to
seamlessly support stream and batch processing with a single, unified runtime.
The <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/news/2019/02/13/unified-batch-streaming-blink.html";>contribution
of Blink</a> to Apache [...]
+
+<p>The 1.9 release was the result of the <strong>biggest community effort the
project has experienced so far</strong>, with the number of contributors
soaring to 190 (see <a href="#the-bigger-picture">The Bigger Picture</a>). For
a quick overview of the upcoming work for Flink 1.10 (and beyond), have a look
at the updated <a href="https://flink.apache.org/roadmap.html";>roadmap</a>!</p>
+
+<h2 id="integration-of-the-chinese-speaking-community">Integration of the
Chinese-speaking community</h2>
+
+<p>As the number of Chinese-speaking Flink users rapidly grows, the community
is working on translating resources and creating dedicated spaces for
discussion to invite and include these users in the wider Flink community. Part
of the ongoing work is described in <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/FLIP-35%3A+Support+Chinese+Documents+and+Website";>FLIP-35</a>
and has resulted in:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>A new user mailing list (user-zh@f.a.o) dedicated to
Chinese-speakers.</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>A Chinese translation of the Apache Flink <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/zh/";>website</a> and <a
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/zh/";>documentation</a>.</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Multiple meetups organized all over China, with the biggest one reaching
a whopping number of 500+ participants. Some of these meetups were also
organized in collaboration with communities from other projects, like Apache
Pulsar and Apache Kafka.</li>
+</ul>

+<p>In case you’re interested in knowing more about this work in progress,
Robert Metzger and Fabian Hueske will be diving into “Inviting Apache Flink’s
Chinese User Community” at the upcoming ApacheCon Europe 2019 (see <a
href="#upcoming-flink-community-events">Upcoming Flink Community
Events</a>).</p>
+
+<h2 id="improving-flinks-documentation">Improving Flink’s Documentation</h2>
+
+<p>Besides the translation effort, the community has also been working quite
hard on a <strong>Flink docs overhaul</strong>. The main goals are to:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Organize and clean-up the structure of the docs;</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Align the content with the overall direction of the project;</li>
+</ul>
+<p></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Improve the <em>getting-started</em> material and make the content more
accessible to different levels of Flink experience.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Given that there has been some confusion in the past regarding unclear
definition of core Flink concepts, one of the first completed efforts was to
introduce a <a
href="https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.9/concepts/glossary.html#glossary";>Glossary</a>
in the docs. To get up to speed with the roadmap for the remainder efforts,
you can refer to <a

Contribution Process and Experience</h2>
+
+<p>The <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/contributing/how-to-contribute.html";>guidelines</a>
to contribute to Apache Flink have been reworked on the website, in an effort
to lower the entry barrier for new contributors and reduce the overall friction
in the contribution process. In addition, the Flink community discussed and
adopted <a
href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=120731026";>bylaws</a>
to help the community collaborate and coordinate more smoothly.</p>
+
+<p>For code contributors, a <a
href="https://flink.apache.org/contributing/code-style-and-quality-preamble.html";>Code
Style and Quality Guide</a> that captures the expected standards for
contributions was also added to the “Contributing” section of the Flink
website.</p>
+
+<p>It’s important to stress that <strong>contributions are not restricted to
code</strong>. Non-code contributions such as mailing list support,
documentation work or organization of community events are equally as important
to the development of the project and highly encouraged.</p>
+
+<h2 id="new-committers-and-pmc-members">New Committers and PMC Members</h2>
+
+<p>The Apache Flink community has welcomed <strong>5 new Committers</strong>
and <strong>4 PMC (Project Management Committee) Members</strong> in 2019, so
far:</p>

+
+<h1 id="the-bigger-picture">The Bigger Picture</h1>
+
+<p>Flink continues to push the boundaries of (stream) data processing, and the
community is proud to see an ever-increasingly diverse set of contributors,
users and technologies join the ecosystem.</p>
+
+<p>In the timeframe of three releases, the project jumped from <strong>112 to
190 contributors</strong>, also doubling down on the number of requested
changes and improvements. To top it off, the Flink GitHub repository recently
reached the milestone of <strong>10k stars</strong>, all the way up from the
incubation days in 2014.</p>

+
+<p>The activity across the user@ and dev@<sup>1</sup> mailing lists shows a
healthy heartbeat, and the gradual ramp up of user-zh@ suggests that this was a
well-received community effort. Looking at the numbers for the same period in
2018, the dev@ mailing list has seen the biggest surge in activity, with an
average growth of <strong>2.5x in the number of messages and distinct
users</strong> — a great reflection of the hyperactive pace of development of
the Flink codebase.</p>

+<p>In support of these observations, the report for the financial year of 2019
from the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) features Flink as one of the most
thriving open source projects, with mentions for:</p>
