# flink vs OpenSearch

flink and OpenSearch share 12 technologies: apache-client, aws-crt-client, s3, Apache, org.apache.hadoop:hadoop-hdfs, software.amazon.awssdk:sts, commons-logging, io.opentelemetry:opentelemetry-exporter-logging, OpenTelemetry, org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-api, org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core, and io.opentelemetry:opentelemetry-exporter-otlp. Both are written in Java.

- [apache/flink](https://seerepo.com/r/apache/flink): Apache Flink
- [opensearch-project/OpenSearch](https://seerepo.com/r/opensearch-project/OpenSearch): 🔎 Open source distributed and RESTful search engine.

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
