    We looked at these two, Apama uses it's own languages, meaning more devs to be hired.
    SAS integrates with the SAS ecosystem, we were already using Tibco

    Taking data from various sources including files, databases, web services, applying some complex rules, transforming, aggregating and producing a result. This is what Spotfire Streaming does best.
    - If one needs connectivity to special services as secured databases or web services, building interactive web apps, those are probably tasks that shall be addressed with different tools.

    Pros
    Cloud Software Group
    • Processing events in real-time with real low latency and high throughput.
    • 100% visual program language, which can be extended by common languages like Java, Python and .NET.
    • Reduced time to prototype, create an application and deployment, which reduces the software lifecycle.
    • Real robust engine and server. Barely heard of customers having issues in production.

    Cons
    Cloud Software Group
    • Being a niche tool, there's not much community support
    • It is on prem, making it slow to boot. not cloud native (It could be that it is our org's issue)
    • The dev environment is very tough to understand for large projects due to the wire style UI/UX

    Usability
    Cloud Software Group
    The usability is good in terms that it gets well integrated with the Spotfire suite but the only few issues I have is the tough UI/UX (learning curve, if the project is huge) and unable to find many users and devs to help with the queries. At the end it is solely based on the documentation provided which is never enough

    We are using Dataflow (by Google).The development time in Spotfire Streaming is definitely shorter because its GUI based. Dataflow handles late arrivals after the window closes, not sure Spotfire Streaming can do that. Dataflow can run GCP as a managed service which is why we chose that tool for our new product.

    Return on Investment
    Cloud Software Group
    • While we haven't specifically integrated Spotfire Streaming into our product development, it has allowed us to see the benefits of real-time streaming data.
    • We have much more visibility into how our longer term roadmap will look and what we should focus on.
