02/05/2023, 3:18 PMDo you mean it would be completely removed? So what would be the primary languages? Python and Java? @Martijn Visser

02/05/2023, 5:11 PMCan we use Python to use Flink as a whole and not just w.r.t Table API ? At the moment it’s just table api if I am not wrong but would there be developments w.r.t Python in the near future ?
