Crate.io – Big Data SQL in real time
Nicely done and thoughtfully executed.As a quibble on the suggested use cases, this platform will not work for the Internet of Things generally for two reasons. First, it lacks support for the spatial data types, including polygons, and operations, including spatial joins, that are typical of those types of data models. Second, typical commercial IoT data sources are often on the order of 100TB-1PB per day, which implies continuous insert rates far beyond what this architecture can support and still have real-time queries. It is why Internet of Things is a completely different class of Big Data problem that does not fit on platforms like Hadoop or Spark that were not specifically designed for it.You can design databases for Internet of Things workloads but this isn't an example of one. However, Crate should work great for more traditional Big Data workloads.
