Chris, In general you’re right - Ignite and Flink are not competitors because the former is a data fabric (a set of components built on top of clustering and data grid capabilities of Ignite) while the latter is a framework for streaming and CEP.
The only point of contention is Ignite’s streaming grid that is tightly integrated with the overall platform. But in any case it doesn’t make Ignite and Link direct rivals. So, if someone needs more than streaming capabilities he should look into Ignite. If the streaming is more than enough then Flink, Kafka, RabbitMQ are options as well. — Denis > On Apr 7, 2017, at 6:06 AM, christos <[email protected]> wrote: > > Igniters, > > I'm looking at a use case where I've been challenged to position Ignite vs. > Flink.
