In this chapter, we will learn about the need for distributed caching in conjunction with Storm and the integration of widely used options with Storm. We will also touch upon the Complex Event Processing (CEP) engines in collaboration with Storm.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
The need for distributed caches in the Storm framework
Introduction to memcache
Building a topology with caches
Introduction to CEP and Esper
At the end of this chapter, you should be able to apply CEP and cache in conjunction with Storm to solve real-time use cases.
