             Summary: Requirement of Streaming layer for Complex Event Processing
                 Key: FLINK-4059
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4059
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: CEP
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
            Reporter: Akshay Shingote


I am trying to get this Flink CEP Example : https://github.com/tillrohrmann/cep-monitoring
One question which arises here is that they have made one single application which does the work of Pattern Matching or CEP. (Like ingest & process is done by 1 application)...They didn't use any streaming layer in between like Kafka or any...I just want to know why any streaming layer is not use in between the producer & the consumer?? Also,I want to know what will be the advantages and disadvantages if I put a streaming layer in between ?? Thank You
