Rethinking Flink’s APIs for a Unified Data Processing Framework
Since its very early days, Apache Flink has followed the philosophy of taking a unified approach to batch and streaming. The core building block is the “continuous processing of unbounded data streams, with batch as a special, bounded set of those streams.” Recent updates to the Flink APIs include architectural designs by the community to support batch and streaming unification in Apache Flink.

Azure Data Lake Analytics and U-SQL
In this article, the author shows how to use big data query and processing language U-SQL on Azure Data Lake Analytics platform. U-SQL combines the concepts and constructs both of SQL and C#. It combines the simplicity and declarative nature of SQL with the programmatic power of C# including rich types and expressions.

Real-Time Data Processing Using Redis Streams and Apache Spark Structured Streaming
Structured Streaming, introduced with Apache Spark 2.0, delivers a SQL-like interface for streaming data. Redis Streams enables Redis to consume, hold and distribute streaming data between multiple producers and consumers. In this article, author Roshan Kumar walks us through how to process streaming data in real time using Redis and Apache Spark Streaming technologies.

Increasing the Quality of Patient Care through Stream Processing
Today’s healthcare technology landscape is disaggregated and siloed. Physicians analyse patient data streams from different systems without much correlation. Even though health-tech domain is mature and rich with data, the value of it is not directed towards increasing the quality of patient care. This article presents a stream processing solution in which streams are co-related.

Scaling a Distributed Stream Processor in a Containerized Environment
The article presents our experience of scaling a distributed stream processor in Kubernetes. The stream processor should provide support for maintaining the optimal level of parallelism. However, adding more resources incurs additional cost and also it does not guarantee performance improvements. Instead, the stream processor should identify the level of resource requirement and scale accordingly.

A Critique of Resizable Hash Tables: Riak Core & Random Slicing
This fall, Wallaroo Labs will be releasing a large new feature set to our distributed data stream processing framework, Wallaroo. One of the new features requires a size-adjustable, distributed data structure to support growing & shrinking of compute clusters. It might be a good idea to use a distributed hash table to support the new feature, but what distributed hash algorithm should we choose?

How to Choose a Stream Processor for Your App
Choosing a stream processor for your app can be challenging with many options to choose from. The best choice depends on individual use cases. In this article, the authors discuss a stream processor reference architecture, key features required by most streaming applications and optional features that can be selected based on specific use cases.
