Apache Beam+Apache Flink/Spark for Batch&Stream Processing

Paolo MarescaLeave a comment

When it comes to stream processing, the Open Source community provides an entire ecosystem to tackle a set of generic problems. Among the emergent Apache projects, Beam is providing a clean programming model intended to be run on top of a runtime like Flink, Spark, Google Cloud DataFlow, etc.     A really convenient declarative… Continue reading Apache Beam+Apache Flink/Spark for Batch&Stream Processing

Apache Avro Schema-less Serialization: How To

Paolo Maresca7 Comments

Apache Avro is a well-know and recognized data serialization framework, already officially in use in toolkits like Apache Hadoop. Avro distinguishes itself from the competitors (like Google’s Protocol Buffers and Facebook’s Thrift) for its intrinsic i. simplicity, ii. speed and iii. serialization rate close to 1:1 (i.e. almost no metadata needed). It has a set… Continue reading Apache Avro Schema-less Serialization: How To
