    Like the name says, it is good for streaming data and analyzing. It is great to look at tuples at a fast rate, filtering, calling other sources to enrich data, can call APIs, etc. Could do better for ingest use cases, can do better with guaranteed delivery, etc.

    • IBM Streams is well suited for providing wire-speed real-time end-to-end processing with sub-millisecond latency.
    • Streams is amazingly computationally efficient. In other words, you can typically do much more processing with a given amount of hardware than other technologies. In a recent linear-road benchmark Streams based application was able to provide greater capability than the Hadoop-based implementation using 10x less hardware. So even when latency isn't critical, using Streams might still make sense for reducing operational cost.
    • Streams comes out of the box with a large and comprehensive set of tested and optimized toolkits. Leveraging these toolkits not only reduces the development time and cost but also helps reduce project risk by eliminating the need for custom code which likely has not seen as much time in test or production.
    • In addition to the out of the box toolkits, there is an active developer community contributing additional specialized packages.

    • Documentation could be more extensive, with more examples, although overall this is not too bad compared to some of the alternative solutions.
    • Seems expensive to use in production.
