Here’s the difference between Faust and Fast Data. The comparison is based on pricing, deployment, business model, and other important factors.
Faust is a stream processing library, porting the ideas from Kafka Streams to Python. It is used at Robinhood to build high performance distributed systems and real-time data pipelines that process billions of events every day. Faust provides both stream processing and event processing, sharing similarity with tools such as Kafka Streams, Apache Spark/Storm/Samza/Flink,
FASTDATA is a big data analytics platform that leverages GPUs to enable real-time stream data processing. It provides API access to developers to enable stream processing. The firm claims that when its platform is coupled with parallel GPU servers, data processing is 5X faster. The solution finds applications for streaming data processing across areas such as finance, fraud, security, AI, ML, VR/AR, and IoT.
