    +Although Flink’s Table & SQL API allows to declare queries in the SQL 
language. A SQL query needs to be embedded within a table program that is 
written either in Java or Scala. The table program needs to be packaged with a 
build tool before it can be submitted to a cluster. This limits the usage of 
Flink to mostly Java/Scala programmers.

    Flink’s Table & SQL API makes it possible to work with queries written in 
the SQL language, but these queries need to be embedded within a table program 
that is written in either Java or Scala. Moreover, these programs need to be 
packaged with a build tool before being submitted to a cluster. This more or 
less limits the usage of Flink to Java/Scala programmers.
