IBM StreamSets vs. Striim

When you are dealing with a data warehouse and want to find an easy way to integrate applications and expose data in real-time, then IBM StreamSets is the best tool to go for. I'm using it for the same purpose in my applications. This tool will be well-suited for someone with a proper technical background. Though IBM StreamSets UI is mostly drag and drop, advanced configurations require technical expertise or support to do the initial setup.

Below samples are the well suited use cases; - Change data capture feature seamlessly works on popular RDMS. You can make enrichments on several data sources within the same Striim application. - You can install stand alone agents and start streaming log files to Striim servers. This is mainly useful for security operations or audit trail use cases.

• It makes building data pipelines quite super intuitive even for non coders.
• Ir also handles real time data ingestion effortlessly so I always have up to date information for my reports.
• It's great at monitoring data quality as well.

• GoldenGate Trail reader which iss faster than Oracle CDC. It does not used logminer, hence there is no load on source Oracle database.
• Easy installation and upgrade in 5 minutes
• Support is very good. Fast and user friendly.

• Where the person's skillsets in data analysis is not of an expert.
• Data monitoring and analysis.
• Customer data for better customer acquisition

IBM Stream sets has been a wonderful addition to our technology stack. It has helped in some of our initiatives such as data engineering, data integration for not only external customers but also for internal purposes. The tool has also helped on our use cases related to streaming data. Moving to another tool would require significant amount of work and time.

The StreamSets platform is very easy to use and the interface is extremely intuitive. The drag-and-drop, low-code design makes it accessible for teams with varying technical skills, allowing us to quickly connect sources, define transformations, and deploy pipelines without heavy coding. StreamSets allows us to get started quickly and not have to worry about our pipelines breaking once they're built.

Streamsets support has improved a lot in the last couple of years. We had some challenges in the beginning with support, but now the quality of the support and the responsiveness to tickets are better. We have contacted support multiple times when it came to scenarios where the system was slow or the output as not as we expected

Faster, checkpointing better. CDC works well. The loading is faster. Easy upgrade and installation. Uses less resource.

• it reduced the time I spent managing and updating pipelines when data formats changed
• it saved us from building everything from scratch by making data movement between systems easier
• it helps scale workflows as data volume grows, without much extra effort
