Amazon EMR 7.9.0 - Flink release notes

Amazon EMR 7.9.0 - Flink Changes

Type Description

New Feature

Starting with Amazon EMR 7.9.0, Apache Flink provides out-of-the-box support for Avro, Parquet, and ORC file formats. You can use these formats directly with any Flink API (DataStream, Table, or SQL) without requiring any additional configuration.

New Feature

Starting with Amazon EMR version 7.9.0, you can enable Hive metastore or Amazon Glue data catalogs more easily by using configuration settings. Add either hive.enabled: true or glue.enabled: true in the flink-conf classification during cluster creation to automatically configure the respective data catalog. This streamlined approach eliminates the manual configuration steps that were previously required.
