Hi Ashutosh,

Flink’s ML library flinkML is maybe not as extensive as Spark’s MLlib.
However, Flink has native support for iterations which makes them blazingly
fast. Iterations in Flink are a distinct operator so that they don’t have
to communicate after each iteration with the client. Furthermore, Flink has
support for delta iterations which allow you to iterate over a subset of
the elements in DataSet. This can speed appropriate algorithms, such as
many graph algorithms, considerably up.

If you have further questions while studying the available material feel
free to write me.

Cheers,
Till
