How you all started with streaming APIs in your workplace?
Is there any good paths or practices when moving from traditional infrastructure / framework to stream based system if there was a need for it ?
- sidlls 8y agoOne good practice: make sure that the "need" to move to a streaming based infrastructure is legitimately due to the character of data flow and not just because the existing "traditional" infrastructure is a collection of ad-hoc hacks and terrible architecture decisions. Otherwise what will happen is your streaming infrastructure will simply be one more item in the pile and add, exponentially, to the existing problems.
- rammy1234 8y agowe are thinking about moving from traditional DB as state saving and move into DB as state tracking and use kafka as streaming platform. I understand this is a completely different approach so streaming has its benefits , but i am skeptical about moving DB out as saving data but saving log of data and replaying events as it happen
