Choosing the Right Stack for Always-on Applications

Across every software category, there is a growing expectation and demand for realtime data. Yet, existing three-tier software architectures are being stretched to the limit trying to handle the latency, and scale, power, and bandwidth requirements of always-on streaming data. As software continues to evolve from a request/response architecture to an always-on data stream architecture, a lot has to change. This presentation will explore new software architectures that are needed to make it easy for companies to deliver applications that rely on the Streaming Web. Topics discussed include: -The APIs and infrastructure that exist (or need to exist) to address the new complexities that emerge from the Streaming Web. -The software design patterns that will emerge as architectures change to support a world of always-on data streams. -The industry trends and thought leadership that are helping define architecture for the streaming web.
