Hello everyone, Last week at Strata, I attended a talk about a streaming machine learning framework from Yahoo labs, SAMOA: https://github.com/yahoo/samoa. The project is going through apache incubation application and currently runs on Storm, S4 and Samza.
After the talk, I spoke with the guy that presented it and we both thought that it'd be cool to port Samoa on Flink. I'm writing about this here because I want to know your thoughts on this and also because I'm not very familiar with the Streaming-API, so I will need your input :) I have already discussed with Paris and there is interest to pick this up from some students at KTH as well. As far as I understand, Samoa expects an API similar to that of Storm and from there the integration should be pretty straight-forward. So, do you think it would be feasible and -most importantly- worth it? Cheers, Vasia.
