In-Depth Information
Scalable
All you need to do in order to scale is add more machines to the cluster. Storm will
reassign tasks to new machines as they become available.
Reliable
All messages are guaranteed to be processed at least once. If there are errors, mes-
sages might be processed more than once, but you'll never lose any message.
Fast
Speed was one of the key factors driving Storm's design.
Transactional
You can get exactly once messaging semantics for pretty much any computation.
