# Overview

FLYT is a project for integrating [Apache Flink](https://flink.apache.org/) with YTsaurus. It lets you use Flink for streaming and batch data processing, reading data from YTsaurus and writing results back in real time.

## Components {#components}

- [flink-connector-ytsaurus](https://ytsaurus.tech/docs/en/user-guide/data-processing/flyt/flink-connector-ytsaurus.md) — Apache Flink connector for sorted dynamic tables in YTsaurus; supports writes, reading bounded streams, and Lookup operations;
- [flink-yson](https://ytsaurus.tech/docs/en/user-guide/data-processing/flyt/flink-yson.md) — formatter for working with [YSON](https://ytsaurus.tech/docs/en/user-guide/storage/yson.md) in Flink jobs.

## Getting Started {#getting-started}

If you are new to FLYT, start with the [Quick Start](https://ytsaurus.tech/docs/en/user-guide/data-processing/flyt/flink-connector-ytsaurus.md#quick-start-guide) section in the connector documentation.
