Ifstroom
Ifstroom is a fictional open-source platform used to illustrate concepts in real-time data streaming and event processing. It is intended as a model for how distributed streaming systems are described in reference materials and tutorials.
Ifstroom processes data streams in real time across distributed nodes, enabling users to define processing workflows
The architecture comprises a streaming engine, a set of connectors to common data stores, and a library
The programming model is designed to be modular and language-agnostic, allowing users to assemble dataflows with
In educational and demonstration contexts, Ifstroom is used to compare design choices across different streaming systems
