RE: Recommended books and batch vs stream processing

[Esa Heikkinen <es...@student.tut.fi>]

These books are only for stream processing ? Are there exist books also for batch processing ?

I am interested in would it be possible to do the batch processing by the stream processing and how well. Certain (simple) data analysis task can certainly be done in both ways.

I think most complex data analysis cases are not possible in stream processing, but where is the limit when the ability of the stream processing is not sufficient ?

Do you know whether anyone has studied this ?

Of course the batch processing can be much slower, but better slower than never.

Best, Esa

I'd recommend this book, Stream Processing with Apache Flink: Fundamentals, Implementation, and Operation of Streaming Applications. It's probably the most authentic book about Flink on the market. You can buy and read the early release on OReilly, http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920057321.do

Hi Esa,

Afaik, there’s no other resource about using Scala in Flink except the documentation & the blog - https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.4/dev/scala_api_extensions.html  https://flink.apache.org/blog/

If you want something only for scala - https://scala-lang.org/documentation/learn.html. First two are kind of “essential”.
Also you could check Fabian Hueske’s book that will be released later this year - https://www.amazon.com/Stream-Processing-Apache-Flink-Implementation/dp/149197429X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1525865019&sr=8-1&keywords=flink (there is some free chapters in Safari books)


Regards,
Georgi

Hi

Could you recommend some Flink books to learn Scala programming and basics in Flink ?

Best, Esa
