Re: [DISCUSS] FLIP proposal for Model Serving over Flink

Big +1 from my side on getting this effort started.

Users have asked for this and I would like to see some progress there.
Did anybody submit a talk about the ML efforts to Flink Forward Berlin this
year?

Great, thank you Theodore!

@Stavros Let me know when you need edit permissions to add the FLIP to the

Re: [DISCUSS] FLIP proposal for Model Serving over Flink

Posted by Theodore Vasiloudis <th...@gmail.com>.
Hello all,

I just wanted to indicate that I would be very willing to help out with
code reviews
for this project and participating in design discussions.

But I should note that I don' think I'll have time to contribute code until
I get back to Stockholm in September.

Regards,
Theodore

Re: [DISCUSS] FLIP proposal for Model Serving over Flink

Posted by Andrea Spina <an...@radicalbit.io>.
Hi all,
yes, we did too. We - from Radicalbit - have submitted a talk focused
on the recently released flink-jpmml library about model serving.
Lately, it became part of the FlinkML project.
