Thanks, this is super helpful and exactly what I am looking for. My main prospective use of Flink is as a target for Apache Beam, GCP Dataflow is great, but I want to have portable jobs, and Flink looks like the best target (over Spark).

Never used Beam before, and I am unsure if it uses all the features of Flink. And the documentation seems a bit sparse (I couldn't find how to tune checkpoints for example on a quick glance). But if you know how to tune it to use more of Flink or it works for your use case (it supports Python and Go), then go for it. It looks pretty neat.
