Apache Flink SQL on Ververica Platform

An End-to-End Platform for Flink SQL

Get Started

Flink SQL has emerged as the de facto standard for low-code data analytics. It has managed to unify batch and stream processing while simultaneously staying true to the SQL standard. In addition, it provides a rich set of advanced features for real-time use cases.

Ververica platform K8s

Ververica Platform makes Flink SQL even more accessible and efficiently scalable across teams. The platform comes with additional tools for developing SQL scripts, managing user-defined functions (UDFs), catalogs and connectors, as well as operating the resulting long-running queries.

Easy to Use

Ververica Platform lets you write, deploy & manage Flink SQL queries in your browser - either through our purpose-built web editor or via Jupyter extension.

Both are based on a REST API that allows you to integrate Flink SQL into your own applications without including any dependencies to Apache Flink.
