Getting Started with Flink Manager
What Flink Manager is, how it connects to your Flink cluster, and what you need to run your first monitored job.
What is Flink Manager?
Flink Manager is Vinteros Labs' all-in-one management console for Apache Flink clusters. It gives platform and data teams a single place to create and run Flink SQL, deploy and monitor streaming jobs, and keep an eye on cluster health.
- Job deployment: submit and manage Flink jobs from a guided UI instead of hand-crafted CLI calls.
- Real-time monitoring: live dashboards for job performance, throughput, latency, and cluster resources.
- SQL workbench: author and execute Flink SQL directly against your cluster.
- Operations: schedulers, retention rules, and role-based access control built in.
Before you begin
You will need:
- A running Apache Flink cluster reachable from Flink Manager (JobManager endpoint).
- Network access between Flink Manager and the cluster's REST port.
- A valid license — request a free 30-day trial license if you don't have one yet.
Your first monitored job
- Install Flink Manager and open the console (see Installation).
- Add your cluster by pointing Flink Manager at your JobManager endpoint.
- Open the SQL editor and run a simple query, or deploy an existing job JAR.
- Open the job monitoring view to watch throughput, checkpoints, and task managers in real time.
Next steps
Continue to Installation for deployment options, or jump to Configuration to set up access control and scheduling.
