Hi,
In connectors development, connectors versions need to be tested against
last 2 versions of Flink. As a consequence, in the CI there is a job
that downloads or takes from cache the Filnk release to test against.
Currently we download from https://archive.apache.org
<https://archive.apache.org/dist/flink/flink-1.18.1/flink-1.18.1-bin-scala_2.12.tgz> but
it has been very slow in the past few days (< 100KB/s) which leads to
exceeding the download timeout (120 min) which fails the build.
I have browsed the ASF infra channel on slack and people recommend using
https://dlcdn.apache.org/ which is dedicated to this use. I have
checked, all the needed versions are there and the download speed from
my laptop is in seconds instead of more than 120 min for archive.
So I recommend we change the url in the CI for connectors in
https://github.com/apache/flink-connector-shared-utils/blob/ci_utils/.github/workflows/ci.yml
Best,
Etienne
