Interest registration for Documentation task relating Table API & SQL

[abdul basit]

Hello Aljoscha Krettek and Seth Wiesman,

I am Abdul Basit, An enthusiast Data Science and Engineering professional. I am currently doing my Industrial PhD focussing on developing predictive maintenance solutions with the help of Big Data, Cloud and AI tools. My PhD is in collaboration with Eit Digital, City University of London and Bosch group.

I have previously done two masters in Data Engineering, Machine learning and have 3 years of industrial experience in these areas. My aim and interest is to bridge the gap between researchers and industry by helping researchers to adapt to the modern tools in the domain of Data and AI. For example, introducing them to tools for building data preparation pipelines with Apache Airflow,Apache Spark, Kafka and others.

I have contributed to Apache Airflow by implementing a AWS Glue plugin for developing better data and ML pipelines. While working on Data Engineering tasks as part of my projects, I became interested in Apache flink and after about it use-cases, I really started to appreciate it and tried to do some hands-on by replacing Spark Streaming with Flink.  

Having worked on a few Big data processing frameworks, I believe that flink has a lot of potential that has yet to be appreciated by the big data community. Documentation and guides available with the official project plays a very crucial role in increasing the adaptability of the project. So, I started to search for the option to contribute to this awesome project and fortunately found the documentation Improvement proposal "FLIP-60: Restructure the Table API & SQL documentation"  and "Flip 12369 Extend the Table API & SQL Documentation" , which is part of google season of code.

I will be very happy to contribute towards any of these two tasks of restructuring and extending Table APi and SQL Documentation. I have read the detailed descriptions of these projects and they align perfectly with my experience. My previous exposure to Apache spark and Kafka will help me to adopt more efficiently to the task. I will look forward to your opinion on my profile before the official application to google season of Docs. I have attached my CV for the reference.

Hi, Abdul.

Thank you for reaching out and for your interest in Google Season of Docs
(GSoD)!

We really appreciate it that you took the time to walk us through your
experience, as well as your previous contributions to open source. Even
though we are accepting applications from people with any kind of
background, being familiar with Flink and similar projects is definitely
an advantage — so, we highly encourage you to apply! You can learn more
about the application process of GSoD in [1,2].

Let us know if you have any questions, we're happy to help!

Thanks,

Marta

 Thanks Marta,
One of the lacking features I noticed is that several example programs are missing for Java and Scala as in Data Sources section on page Apache Flink 1.10 Documentation: Flink DataSet API Programming Guide

Apache Flink 1.10 Documentation: Flink DataSet API Programming Guide

I could develop the example programs among other additions.
regards,Deepak

There seems to be some thread confusion here. @Deepak, I'll reply to you in
the original thread ("Interested in applying as a technical writer").

Sorry, Abdul!
