Learning Apache Flink S01E05: Installing PyFlink (with some bumps along the way…)
When I started my journey learning Apache Flink one of the things that several people expressed an interest in hearing more about was PyFlink. This appeals to me too, because whilst Java is just something I don’t know and feels beyond me to try and learn, Python is something that I know enough of to at least hack my way around it. I’ve previously had fun with PySpark, and whilst Flink SQL will probably be one of my main focusses, I also want to get a feel for PyFlink.
The first step to using PyFlink is installing it - which should be simple, right?
