Tutorial Summary

Edit me

This tutorial has barely scratched the surface of what Streams is capable of. Apart from a very small number of SPL expressions, no coding was involved in building a progressively more interesting application.

With the help of a prepared but still simple additional module, this set of applications can handle a continuous flow of live vehicle location observations and distinguish between different kinds of content.

Simply by using a few building blocks, sketching a graph that governs how the tuples flow, and setting some parameters in a property view, you’ve already crafted a simple yet reasonably powerful solution.

Next steps

After you complete the tutorial, your next steps are to decide whether:

This application development platform for streaming data can help you build solutions that enhance your business
What you have seen in this tutorial gives you a sense that it can help solve problems you already encounter
Your organization has access to the required development skills or should invest in building them

You can also find tutorials and articles on IBM Streams (formerly IBM InfoSphere Streams) on IBM developerWorks and more information from the IBM Streams Development community (Streamsdev).

Happy streaming!
