Claude Warren commented on FLINK-29281: --------------------------------------- Pekko v1.0.1 was just released. [d...@pekko.apache.org|mailto:d...@pekko.apache.org] is the dev list. Announcement email: https://lists.apache.org/thread/c10qoktyq0tv7t1bo14nxv2dt3s3sf2b > Replace Akka by gRPC-based RPC implementation > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-29281 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-29281 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Technical Debt > Components: Runtime / RPC > Reporter: Chesnay Schepler > Assignee: Chesnay Schepler > Priority: Major > > Following the license change I propose to eventually replace Akka. > Based on LEGAL-619 an exemption is not feasible, and while a fork _may_ be > created it's long-term future is up in the air and I'd be uncomfortable with > relying on it. > I've been experimenting with a new RPC implementation based on gRPC and so > far I'm quite optimistic. It's also based on Netty while not requiring as > much of a tight coupling as Akka did. > This would also allow us to sidestep migrating our current Akka setup from > Netty 3 (which is affected by several CVEs) to Akka Artery, both saving work > and not introducing an entirely different network stack to the project. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
