Live Webinar #6: Let’s Get Real: RisingWave vs. Flink – Who’s Better?

About
In the rapidly evolving landscape of big data, stream processing has become increasingly important. Several frameworks have emerged to aid in this process, including RisingWave and Apache Flink, two popular distributed stream processing systems in the open-source world. While both systems offer low-latency query processing over continuously ingested streaming data, they each have distinct features and benefits.

In this webinar, we covered:

Stream processing: What it is and why it matters for real-time data;
Design principles: How RisingWave’s SQL-first design compares to Flink’s distributed state management;
Cost comparison: Breakdown of infrastructure and operational costs;
Use cases: Key industries and applications, including IoT, finance, and real-time analytics.
This webinar provided solid insights into choosing the right platform for various needs.
