Apache Spark Streaming vs Apache Beam
Developers should learn Apache Spark Streaming for building real-time analytics applications, such as fraud detection, IoT sensor monitoring, or social media sentiment analysis, where low-latency processing of continuous data streams is required meets developers should learn apache beam when building complex, scalable data processing applications that need to handle both batch and streaming data with consistency across different execution environments. Here's our take.
Apache Spark Streaming
Developers should learn Apache Spark Streaming for building real-time analytics applications, such as fraud detection, IoT sensor monitoring, or social media sentiment analysis, where low-latency processing of continuous data streams is required
Apache Spark Streaming
Nice PickDevelopers should learn Apache Spark Streaming for building real-time analytics applications, such as fraud detection, IoT sensor monitoring, or social media sentiment analysis, where low-latency processing of continuous data streams is required
Pros
- +It is particularly valuable in big data environments due to its integration with the broader Spark ecosystem, allowing seamless combination of batch and streaming workloads and leveraging Spark's in-memory computing for performance
- +Related to: apache-spark, apache-kafka
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Apache Beam
Developers should learn Apache Beam when building complex, scalable data processing applications that need to handle both batch and streaming data with consistency across different execution environments
Pros
- +It is particularly useful in scenarios requiring portability across cloud and on-premises systems, such as ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipelines, real-time analytics, and event-driven architectures, as it simplifies deployment and reduces vendor lock-in
- +Related to: apache-flink, apache-spark
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Apache Spark Streaming if: You want it is particularly valuable in big data environments due to its integration with the broader spark ecosystem, allowing seamless combination of batch and streaming workloads and leveraging spark's in-memory computing for performance and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Apache Beam if: You prioritize it is particularly useful in scenarios requiring portability across cloud and on-premises systems, such as etl (extract, transform, load) pipelines, real-time analytics, and event-driven architectures, as it simplifies deployment and reduces vendor lock-in over what Apache Spark Streaming offers.
