Project Description Motivation:
The motivation behind selecting and contributing towards Apache Flink is
the large community and Ideology behind it. Contributing to Apache Flink
will help me learn more about it and its unique feature apart from this one
of the other major reason is to create a well-defined structured
documentation, so that it can help tens of thousands of users and creating
a little better place for everyone.



Project Description:
I’ll be working on creating documentation for How to create new workflows
easily and effectively. There are some of the steps involved in workflows
which are -
1. Read
2. Pre processing
3. Processing
4. Post processing
5. Save/Action
6. Monitoring
Each step can involve multiple tasks and multitude of actions can be taken
after each step such as aborting the job if 2 or more tasks fail in a stage
or re run a task if it fails for at least 2 times.

Template
This is one of the templates that can be used for the documentation. It can
be modified and new sections can be added according to the requirements of
the document.


$projectName/Library Name
--------
In this section, I will give background information of the library,
what does this library use, on what languages and framework it is based on,
what are the dependencies of this library/project where it will be used

Features
--------
I will add features of the project here like
- this library creates connection between server and client
- Make things faster

Installation
------------
In this section I will add the installation procedure and dependencies that
needs to be installed.
Install $project by running:
install project

Contribute

Support

We have a mailing list located at: project@google-groups.com

Time Commitment
I will give 40+ hours a week but in case of any mishap, I will compensate
those hours on weekends. I will keep my mentor up to date about my work;
will share my work details via email to my mentor.

About me:
As a person, I always put my best foot forward to help others. During
school and college days, I would explain some topics to my friends after
understanding those topics myself. Taking part in GSoD is a splendid step
through which I, as a writer, can contribute to making this open-source
community more engaging and helpful for new and existing users all around
the world.


Future Plans:
My future plans are very clear, after GSoD’20. I will keep contributing to
the organization in other projects too. I will try to make it perfect in
all aspects from the documentation perspective to the architecture
perspective. I will surely attend any meeting of the organization if I ever
get a chance.

Terms & Conditions:
I solemnly agree that I will work in the same way that I have explained
above and in case of any miscarriage, I will be held accountable. I
understand the dedication required for this project; I assure you that I am
dedicating my whole season for this project so that I can provide the best
work.
