Hi Michael, Thanks for the question regarding the Pulsar Connector.
The team is currently focusing on further developing the Flink-Pulsar connector with the following items: - Addition of a columnar off-loader to improve the performance for batch queries.The columnar segment off-loader is currently in progress and expected to be out sometime in May. - Work on state integration is also in progress and expected sometime in May. - Using Pulsar as a Flink state backend is something that the team will also be working on once the off-loader (mentioned above) is complete so this should be expected sometime in June. All such development efforts will be part of the Pulsar Connector, with the intention to be contributed back to the Flink community. You can follow the progress across all development efforts in FLIP-72[1] I hope this helps.
