Re: Integrating Flink CEP with a Rules Engine

Sorry I didn't read the whole thread. We have a similar rqmt wherein the users would like to add/update/delete CEP patterns via UX or REST api and we started discussing building a REST api for that, glad to see that this is a common ask and if there's already a community effort around this -

Re: Integrating Flink CEP with a Rules Engine

Hi Jorn and Sridhar, It would be worth describing a bit more what these tools are and what are your needs. In addition, and to see what the CEP library already offers here you can find the documentation: https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.3/dev/libs/cep.html

Integrating Flink CEP with a Rules Engine
