NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar. Understand more

Assess ? Worth exploring with the goal of understanding how it will affect your enterprise.

The need to respond quickly to customer insights has driven increasing adoption of event-driven architectures and stream processing. Frameworks such as Spark, Flink or Kafka Streams offer a paradigm where simple event consumers and producers can cooperate in complex networks to deliver real-time insights. But this programming style takes time and effort to master and when implemented as single-point applications, it lacks interoperability. Making stream processing work universally on a large scale can require a significant engineering investment. Now, a new crop of tools is emerging that offers the benefits of stream processing to a wider, established group of developers who are comfortable using SQL to implement analytics. Standardizing on SQL as the universal streaming language lowers the barrier for implementing streaming data applications. Tools like ksqlDB and Materialize help transform these separate applications into unified platforms. Taken together, a collection of SQL-based streaming applications across an enterprise might constitute a streaming data warehouse.
