Apache Spark Streaming Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Sr Project Manager at Raj Subhatech4.0I've used Apache Spark Streaming for real-time GIS and data processing, benefiting from its scalability, integration with Python tools, and predictive analytics, though handling varied data types sometimes presents challenges with missing or incomplete values.
Data Engineer III at a tech consulting company with 10,001+ employees4.0I've used Apache Spark Streaming to improve data latency for real-time customer profiling and ML features, though I’d like true real-time processing instead of micro-batches; setup was easy, and scalability and community support are excellent.
Data Engineer at Walmart Global Tech4.0I've used Apache Spark Streaming for near real-time fraud detection with Kafka. Its flexible windowing, checkpointing, and scalability work well, though it requires careful configuration. It's reliable but not perfect, and continuous monitoring is essential.
Sr. Manager Data Engineer at a tech consulting company with 51-200 employees3.5I've used Apache Spark Streaming for years to process network data in near real-time. It's scalable and easy to deploy on AWS, but lacks support for certain features, monitoring, and handling of slowly changing dimensions.
Chief Data-strategist and Director at Theworkshop.es4.5I use Apache Spark Streaming for processing real-time data in web analytics. Its versatility in supporting multiple languages makes it ideal for integrating diverse data sources. While the UI could improve, it effectively handles various scenarios and requires careful use case consideration.

Head of Data Science center of excellence at Ameriabank CJSC4.5We use Spark Streaming in a micro-batch region, benefiting from its high performance and low latency, which makes it critical and quite stable. Its scalability and well-designed documentation simplify finding solutions, even though we lack experience with all features.
Chief Technology Officer at Teslon Technologies Pvt Ltd4.0We used Spark Streaming for streaming IoT data and applied Spark ML in healthcare. Its native Python support, ease of deployment, good documentation, and community support were valuable, though transitioning it to cloud environments was challenging compared to Storm.
