changes in quantities and provides a corresponding output, generally as an electrical or optical signal; for example, a thermocouple converts temperature to an output voltage.
• Geared toward prototyping • “Physical Computing:” interacting with the environment "Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for anyone making interactive projects.”
communication • Serial communication • Minimal connections required — power, ground, data in, data out (UART) • 2 power options (1 mW/100 mW) • Support for multiple network topologies (Mesh, star, tree, etc.)
• Scalability & Fault Tolerance • Flexibility: Single event + Microbatch/Transactional APIs • Choose the latency/throughput balance that best for your use case. • At-most-once, at-least-once, exactly-once semantics.
Allows consumers to rewind to specific points in the queue • Redeploy topologies without data loss • Durability: Provides everything Storm needs for exactly-once and at- least-once guarantees.
