Graceful
streaming
GRACEFUL STREAMING
Designed to be able to gracefully handle massive real-time streams of data, the software allows users to easily configure and create event driven architectures and workflows.
03
Powerful
POWERFUL
Handles millions of events and measurements per second and petabytes of historical data, (all with nanosecond resolution), more efficiently and cost-effectively than any alternative technologies.
