Fast Data: Moving beyond from Big Data's map-reduce
share
Big Data may not be the solution many are looking for. The latest rise of Big Data methods and systems is partly due to the new abilities these techniques provide, partly to the simplicity of the software design and partly because the buzzword itself has value to investors and clients. That said, popularity is not a measure for suitability and the Big Data approach might not be the best solution, or even an applicable one, to many common problems. Namely, time dependent problems whose solution may be bound or cached in any manner can benefit greatly from moving to partly stateless, flow oriented functions and data models. This paper presents such a model to substitute the traditional map-shuffle-reduce models.
