Apache Flink Alternatives

    Apache Flink is described as 'Flink’s core is a streaming dataflow engine that provides data distribution, communication, and fault tolerance for distributed computations over data streams'. There are more than 10 alternatives to Apache Flink for a variety of platforms, including Linux, Mac, Windows, Online / Web-based and Self-Hosted solutions. The best alternative is Apache Spark, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Apache Flink are Apache Hadoop (Free, Open Source), Splunk (Freemium), Disco MapReduce (Free, Open Source) and Robotic Data Automation (RDA) (Freemium).

    1. Apache Spark™ is a fast and general engine for large-scale data processing. Speed Run programs up to 100x faster than Hadoop MapReduce in memory, or 10x faster on disk. Spark has an advanced DAG execution engine that supports cyclic data flow and in-memory computing.
    2. Apache Hadoop is a open source software framework that supports data-intensive distributed applications licensed under the Apache v2 license. It enables applications to work with thousands of computational independent computers and petabytes of data.
