It's an open-source framework for building event-driven streaming agents that can operate with scalability, reliability, and real-time responsiveness. + +### Why Apache Flink Agents Matters + +While AI agents have made rapid progress in interactive applications like chatbots, most still operate outside the high-throughput, low-latency world of real-time data processing. Yet in industrial settings -- from e-commerce and finance to IoT and logistics -- critical decisions must be made instantly in response to live events: a payment failure, a sensor anomaly, a user click. These workloads demand more than just intelligence -- they require massive scale, millisecond latency, fault tolerance, and stateful coordination, all of which are strengths of Apache Flink. But until now, there’s been no unified framework to bring agentic AI patterns into this proven streaming ecosystem. Apache Flink Agents bridges this gap. + +### Key Features + +Building on Flink's battle-tested streaming engine, Apache Flink Agents inherits distributed, at-scale, fault-tolerant structured data processing and mature state management, and adds first-class abstractions for Agentic AI building blocks and functionalities -- large language models (LLMs), prompts, tools memory, dynamic orchestration, observability, and more. + +The key features of Apache Flink Agents include: Review Comment: @alnzng, that one is mentioned as "Exactly-Once Action Consistency". Here I didn't mention "replay-based", because I want our users to focus on WHAT capability (the consistency) we provide, rather than HOW (replay-based) we deliver that capability. And as I said, that seems to be conflict against the testing / debugging / evaluation purposes that @thefalc mentioned. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
