Building a Kubernetes Operator for Apache Flink in Java
Discover how to build a Kubernetes Operator for Apache Flink using Java in this 22-minute conference talk from The ASF. Learn the fundamentals of Kubernetes Operators and how to implement them from scratch using the Java Operator SDK (JOSDK), a production-ready framework. Explore the challenges of managing complex data processing systems on Kubernetes and understand why Operators are the solution for self-operating applications and infrastructure provisioning. Gain insights into the official Apache Flink Kubernetes Operator, built with JOSDK, and understand its advantages over Go-based operator frameworks for large-scale production use-cases. Benefit from the expertise of Gyula Fora, a Software Engineer at Apple and Flink PMC member, and Attila Mészáros, a Principal Software Engineer at Red Hat and creator of Java Operator SDK, as they share their experiences and best practices in developing Kubernetes Operators for complex applications.
