  • Streaming Analytics and Schema Registry

    Speaker: Arun Iyer, Hortonworks, India

    Speaker: Satish Duggana, Hortonworks, India

    Stream processing has become the de-facto standard for building real-time ETL and Stream Analytics applications. We see batch workloads move into streaming to to act on the data and derive insights faster. This is evidenced by the explosion of Stream Processing frameworks, but users have to choose and try to understand the benefits of each of these frameworks, choose the right one, learn the new APIs and also operationalize their applications. To create value faster, we are introducing new open source tools – Streamline and Schema registry. Schema Registry is a central repository for storing and evolving schemas. It provides an API & tooling to help developers and users to register a schema and consume that schema without having any impact if the schema changes. Streamline is a self-service tool that will ease building streaming applications and deploy the streaming application across multiple frameworks/engines that users prefer in a snap.
