Why is this sad?
- dozzie 11y agoBecause there are plenty of environments that could use some stream processing (monitoring anyone?), but don't have Java in any form, and including JVM would be a gigantic overhead, in terms of disk space and memory consumption.
- dskrvk 11y agoAre you talking about IoT? Presumably these devices don't have the large amounts of data locally that would warrant the complexity of a MapReduce framework. You could just run a simple WebSockets process that would do the aggregation in memory.
- dozzie 11y agoNo, I am talking about regular servers and monitoring them (or rather, processing data collected from monitoring). Using up a one third of RAM I planned to allocate for the whole server, just to have a message forwarder that can't even do anything useful yet is not something to be desired.
