Preface

In this book, we go beyond the boundaries of traditional batch processing and seamlessly integrate the dynamic world of streaming data. If you come from the streaming world, we provide a database perspective for stream processing. Streaming databases bridge the gap between data at rest and data in motion.

Drawing inspiration from Martin Kleppmann’s seminal work on “turning the database inside out,” we flip the narrative to “bringing streaming systems back into the database.” Through this paradigm shift, we can first unravel the intricate layers of stream processing before we find familiar abstractions that make real-time streaming more accessible and understandable to developers, regardless of their familiarity with streaming technologies.

Our exploration delves into the core principles of streaming databases, exposing how they empower developers to take on real-time data processing use cases within the familiar confines of a database environment. Focusing on practicality and usability, we unveil how streaming databases democratize real-time data analytics, paving the way for innovative applications and insights.

Whether you’re a seasoned database engineer or a novice developer, this book guides you to unlocking the full potential of streaming databases and embracing the future of data processing.
