Data / Event / Message Streams
7
“Conceptually, a stream is a (potentially never-ending)
flow of data records, and a transformation is an
operation that takes one or more streams as input,
and produces one or more output streams as a
result.”
Apache Flink: Dataflow Programming Model

Data Stream Programming
8
The idea of abstracting logic from execution is hardly
new -- it was the dream of SOA. And the recent
emergence of microservices and containers shows that
the dream still lives on.
For developers, the question is whether they want to
learn yet one more layer of abstraction to their coding.
On one hand, there's the elusive promise of a common
API to streaming engines that in theory should let you
mix and match, or swap in and swap out.

Lambda Architecture - III
11
 Data-processing architecture designed to handle
massive quantities of data by using both batch- and
stream-processing methods
 Balances latency, throughput, fault-tolerance, big
data, real-time analytics, mitigates the latencies of
map-reduce
 Data model with an append-only, immutable data
source that serves as a system of record
 Ingesting and processing timestamped events that are
appended to existing events. State is determined from
the natural time-based ordering of the data.

 Performance is about 2 things (Martin Thompson –
http://www.infoq.com/articles/low-latency-vp ):
– Throughput – units per second, and
– Latency – response time
 Real-time – time constraint from input to response
regardless of system load.
 Hard real-time system if this constraint is not honored then
a total system failure can occur.
 Soft real-time system – low latency response with little
deviation in response time
 100 nano-seconds to 100 milli-seconds. [Peter Lawrey]
What's High Performance?

Imperative and Reactive
20
We live in a Connected Universe
... there is hypothesis that all
the things in the Universe are
intimately connected, and you
can not change a bit without
changing all.
Action – Reaction principle is
the essence of how Universe
behaves.

Imperative and Reactive
 Reactive Programming: using static or dynamic data
flows and propagation of change
Example: a := b + c
 Functional Programming: evaluation of mathematical
functions,
➢ Avoids changing-state and mutable data, declarative
programming
➢ Side effects free => much easier to understand and
predict the program behavior.
Example: books.stream().filter(book -> book.getYear() > 2010)
.forEach( System.out::println )

Functional Reactive (FRP)
22
According to Connal Elliot's (ground-breaking paper @
Conference on Functional Programming, 1997), FRP is:
(a) Denotative
(b) Temporally continuous

Reactive Manifesto
23
[http://www.reactivemanifesto.org]

24
 Message Driven – asynchronous message-passing allows
to establish a boundary between components that ensures
loose coupling, isolation, location transparency, and
provides the means to delegate errors as messages
[Reactive Manifesto].
 The main idea is to separate concurrent producer and
consumer workers by using message queues.
 Message queues can be unbounded or bounded (limited
max number of messages)
 Unbounded message queues can present memory
allocation problem in case the producers outrun the
consumers for a long period → OutOfMemoryError
Scalable, Massively Concurrent

Reactive Programming
25
 Microsoft®
opens source polyglot project ReactiveX
(Reactive Extensions) [http://reactivex.io]:
Rx = Observables + LINQ + Schedulers :)
Java: RxJava, JavaScript: RxJS, C#: Rx.NET, Scala: RxScala,
Clojure: RxClojure, C++: RxCpp, Ruby: Rx.rb, Python: RxPY,
Groovy: RxGroovy, JRuby: RxJRuby, Kotlin: RxKotlin ...
 Reactive Streams Specification
[http://www.reactive-streams.org/] used by:
 (Spring) Project Reactor [http://projectreactor.io/]
 Actor Model – Akka (Java, Scala) [http://akka.io/]

Reactive Streams Spec.
26
 Reactive Streams – provides standard for
asynchronous stream processing with non-blocking
back pressure.
 Minimal set of interfaces, methods and protocols for
asynchronous data streams
 April 30, 2015: has been released version 1.0.0 of
Reactive Streams for the JVM (Java API,
Specification, TCK and implementation examples)
 Java 9: java.util.concurrent.Flow

Reactive Streams Spec.
27
 Publisher – provider of potentially unbounded number
of sequenced elements, according to Subscriber(s)
demand.
Publisher.subscribe(Subscriber) => onSubscribe onNext*
(onError | onComplete)?
 Subscriber – calls Subscription.request(long) to
receive notifications
 Subscription – one-to-one Subscriber ↔ Publisher,
request data and cancel demand (allow cleanup).
 Processor = Subscriber + Publisher

FRP = Async Data Streams
28
 FRP is asynchronous data-flow programming using the
building blocks of functional programming (e.g. map,
reduce, filter) and explicitly modeling time
 Used for GUIs, robotics, and music. Example (RxJava):
Observable.from(
new String[]{"Reactive", "Extensions", "Java"})
.take(2).map(s -> s + " : on " + new Date())
.subscribe(s -> System.out.println(s));
Result:
Reactive : on Wed Jun 17 21:54:02 GMT+02:00 2015
Extensions : on Wed Jun 17 21:54:02 GMT+02:00 2015

Project Reactor
29
 Reactor project allows building high-performance (low
latency high throughput) non-blocking asynchronous
applications on JVM.
 Reactor is designed to be extraordinarily fast and can
sustain throughput rates on order of 10's of millions of
operations per second.
 Reactor has powerful API for declaring data
transformations and functional composition.
 Makes use of the concept of Mechanical Sympathy
built on top of Disruptor / RingBuffer.

Hot and Cold Event Streams
35
 PULL-based (Cold Event Streams) – Cold streams (e.g.
RxJava Observable / Flowable or Reactor Flow / Mono)
are streams that run their sequence when and if they
are subscribed to. They present the sequence from the
start to each subscriber.
 PUSH-based (Hot Event Streams) – emit values
independent of individual subscriptions. They have their
own timeline and events occur whether someone is
listening or not. When subscription is made observer
receives current events as they happen.
Example: mouse events

Converting Cold to Hot Stream
36

Hot Stream Example - Reactor
37
EmitterProcessor<String> emitter =
EmitterProcessor.create();
FluxSink<String> sink = emitter.sink();
emitter.publishOn(Schedulers.single())
.map(String::toUpperCase)
.filter(s -> s.startsWith("HELLO"))
.delayElements(Duration.of(1000, MILLIS))
.subscribe(System.out::println);
sink.next("Hello World!"); // emit - non blocking
sink.next("Goodbye World!");
sink.next("Hello Trayan!");
Thread.sleep(3000);
