Re: Question on flink and hdfs

[Maximilian Michels]

Hi Jerry,

If you don't want to use Hadoop, simply pick _any_ Flink version. We
recommend the Hadoop 1 version because it contains the least dependencies,
i.e. you need to download less and the installation occupies less space.
Other than that, it doesn't really matter if you don't use the HDFS
functionality, i.e. you don't access hdfs:// paths.

Cheers,
Max

Hi!

Yes, you can run Flink completely without HDFS.

Also the checkpointing can put state into any file system, like S3, or a
Unix file system (like a NAS or Amazon EBS), or even Tachyon.

Greetings,
Stephan

Question on flink and hdfs

[Jerry Peng]

Hello,

Does flink require hdfs to run? I know you can use hdfs to checkpoint and
process files in a distributed fashion.  So can flink run standalone
without hdfs?
