@swirlAI Thank you for writing the article. I have the following questions.
1) How does the flink receives/processes stream of data? Do task managers work on top of kafka queues?
2) Why do we need network managers for stream processing? I believe that the actor system already provides a way to move data and coordinate among tasks.
3) Why does flink uses concept of timeslots on the jobs. I don't think kafka stream processor uses timeslots concept?
4) The artictecture described is good for batch processing, but you mentioned that flink is used for stream processing?
