* Streaming DBs will take over the world * What the heck is a streaming database?

Elasticsearch Distributed Full-text Search based on Lucene Can scale to
many nodes and highly available Analytics, Document Oriented, Open Source
ES: Percolation aka Search in Reverse 1. Indexing a Query
2. Matches when new documents are added 3. Distributed design since v1.0.0
Not just synchronous and 1:Many, but also: CRUD with structured
data
An Example Snippet Registering a Query
Match a Document Response
Topics: 1. What is a streaming database? 2. The use-cases
3. ElasticSearch as the query layer 4. Streaming Topology 5. How does it scale? 6. The future
Streaming Topology • Queries are subscriptions (HTTP Streaming / Websockets)
• Publish matches to subscribers. • Works as is with the ES API.
Streaming Topology
Streaming Topology • Beyond Percolation, keep the document store model
of ES. • Every document is a topic, which can have references. • When a doc is created, updated, or deleted; notify all the docs that refer to it.
Streaming Workflows • Every document has an ES Path exposed
by REST. Endpoint Worker Push back to stream • Topology like Apache Storm, but you can notify the workers using the entire ElasticSearch API.
Topics: 1. What is a streaming database? 2. The use-cases
3. ElasticSearch as the query layer 4. Streaming Topology 5. How does it scale? 6. The future
How does it distribute, scale? • Underlying Store: ES is
highly available, can scale to many nodes. • Were able to ingest 100,000 documents per second on 20 C4.2x large nodes (AWS). • Eventually consistent, with a very small t. • Distributed Streaming Topology is a work in progress.
Looking forward “The web has moved to #realtime, why shouldn’t
the Backend Infrastructure too?” “DBs are moving to having RESTful APIs, percolators, streaming interfaces are the next steps”.
Bold claim “In three years, every modern DB will have
a streaming interface.”
