Hi guys, not sure if this is the best place to ask this question(Please correct me if wrong): Is there any plan/existing feature to support Flink lineage? Potentially we can build one similar to spark-lineage by ourself, but to prevent re-invent the wheel, just want to double check if someone's working on it already.
At least Q1 2022 Road Map doesn't has related feature IIUC.
Well, looks like flink execution plan doesn't contains necessary metadata to identify details of up/down stream. Thus, spark-lineage way might not working.

Hi @hallowed-airline-89779! We don’t have Flink on our immediate roadmap, and I can’t think of anyone in the community off the top of my head that might be working on it.. That said, I’d be more than happy to help facilitate conversations/guidance with the Core DataHub team! It’s always suuuper helpful when community members can contribute back - you can take a look at #integration-iceberg-datahub as an example of a community-lead integration with support from the Core Team
In the meantime, I created a feature request for Flink so we can get a better sense of community interest 🙂 https://feature-requests.datahubproject.io/b/feedback/p/flink-integration
