Spark Streaming vs. IBM StreamSets

Spark Streaming brings Apache Spark's language-integrated API to stream processing, letting you write streaming jobs the same way you write batch jobs. It supports Java, Scala and Python. Spark Streaming recovers both lost work and operator state (e.g. sliding windows) out of the box, without any extra code on your part.

IBM StreamSets is a robust streaming data integration tool for hybrid, multi-cloud environments that enables real-time decision making. It allows ingestion and in-flight transformation of structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data from streaming sources, and reliably delivers trusted data into diverse destinations. Flexible deployment options promote security, cost-effectiveness and performance. With several pre-built connectors, an intuitive no-code/low-code interface, and automatic adaptability to data drifts, StreamSets accelerates data pipeline operationalization.
