Apache Flink is an open-source, distributed engine for stateful processing over unbounded (streams) and bounded (batches) data sets. Stream processing applications are designed to run continuously, with minimal downtime, and process data as it is ingested. Apache Flink is designed for low latency processing, performing computations in-memory, for high availability, removing single point of failures, and to scale horizontally.

Apache Flink’s features include advanced state management with exactly-once consistency guarantees, event-time processing semantics with sophisticated out-of-order and late data handling. Apache Flink has been developed for streaming-first, and offers a unified programming interface for both stream and batch processing.
