Thank you Till. I wanted to contribute towards Flink. Looks like this could be a good start. I couldn't find the place where the insert query is built for Pojo sinks in CassandraSink.java, CassandraPojoSink.java, or CassandraSinkBase.java. Could you throw some light about how that insert query is built automatically by the sink?
