A general-purpose stream archival facility
could serve as a building block for a variety of
applications, e.g.
network packet monitoring
urban traffic control
General monitoring case:
messages received from massive numbers of
sensors
reception at potentially different rates
data should be stably stored on disk
Existing systems' inadequacies:
Traditional systems (such as relational DBs):
· not engineered to efficiently store continuous
stream data automatically generated from
sensors in real time
Modern stream storage servers:
· basically designed to store stream files of limited
size for repetitive playback
