Integration of source stream to Flink

Multiple sources are available to integrate with, the following is a list:

Apache Kafka
Amazon Kinesis Streams
RabbitMQ
Apache NiFi
Twitter Streaming API

We will now see a demonstration of integration with Apache Kafka and RabbitMQ.

Integration with Apache Kafka

We have discussed Apache Kafka setup in previous chapters, so we will focus on Java code to integrate Flink and Kafka.

Follow the given steps:

Add dependency in pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-streaming-java_2.11</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.0</version>
</dependency>

The previous dependency is required for all type of the integration. The following dependencies are specific to Flink and Kafka integration:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
    <artifactId>flink-connector-kafka-0.8_2.11</artifactId>
    <version>1.2.0</version>
</dependency>...
