Hey all, I'm the author of Storm. Just wanted to point you to a few resources:
I've written a lot of documentation on the wiki, which you can find here: https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm/wiki https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm/wiki
There's a few companion projects to Storm. These are:
One-click deploy for Storm on EC2: https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-deploy https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-deploy
Adapter to use Kestrel as a Spout within Storm: https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-kestrel https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-kestrel
Starter project with example topologies that you can run in local mode: https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-starter https://github.com/nathanmarz/storm-starter
Feel free to ask me questions here or on Storm's mailing list ( http://groups.google.com/group/storm-user http://groups.google.com/group/storm-user ), and I'll answer as best I can!
- aaronblohowiak 15y agoThank you for releasing such thorough documentation with your project; it is a great indicator of professionalism and passion. ^.^
- nathanmarz 15y agoThanks! Good documentation is a critical part of having a usable project, and that will always be a focus of Storm. If you have any feedback for how the documentation can be better, please let me know.
- varworld 15y agoHow does Storm compare to Kafka?
- pp13 15y agoWhy did you guys go with clojure, instead of something maybe like scala?
- nathanmarz 15y agoI've had a ton of success using Clojure with projects like Cascalog and ElephantDB. It's a phenomenal language.
- tom_b 15y agoJust to point out, Nathan will be speaking at the Clojure/Conj conference this year. Talking about Cascalog. I have a schedule conflict this year :( but would recommend the conference to everyone - the first year was informative with contagious enthusiasm. The other speakers also look cool.
- anand_nalya 15y agoHi nathan, how does this compare to S4?
- nathanmarz 15y agoThe biggest difference is that Storm guarantees that data will be processed, whereas S4 can lose data. I also think Storm is significantly easier to use.
- zaph0d 15y agoNathan, Congratulations on the awesome work, Storm looks really great. A minor nit, I was looking at the code, and all the hanging parens make it look really sad :-(
- zaph0d 15y agoBah, why the downvote? I was pointing out a major Lisp convention.
- nathanmarz 15y agoAnd one more resource... here are the slides from my launch presentation of Storm: http://www.slideshare.net/nathanmarz/storm-distributed-and-faulttolerant-realtime-computation http://www.slideshare.net/nathanmarz/storm-distributed-and-f...
