Overview/Description
Apache Storm is a fast and scalable open source distribution system that drives real-time computations. Storm makes it easy to reliably process unbounded streams of data, doing for real-time processing what Hadoop did for batch processing. Storm is simple, can be used with any programming language, and is a lot of fun. This course will introduce Storm providing an in depth approach to the concepts and how Apache Storm ticks. Apache Storm can integrate with many other products and this course will introduce you to ZooKeeper along with the Storm Trident Architecture and how they are used with Storm model.

Target Audience
Individuals interested in learning the architecture of Apache Storm and how it can be used.
