Apache Storm vs Mercurial: What are the differences?
Developers describe Apache Storm as "Distributed and fault-tolerant realtime computation". Apache Storm is a free and open source distributed realtime computation system. Storm makes it easy to reliably process unbounded streams of data, doing for realtime processing what Hadoop did for batch processing. Storm has many use cases: realtime analytics, online machine learning, continuous computation, distributed RPC, ETL, and more. Storm is fast: a benchmark clocked it at over a million tuples processed per second per node. It is scalable, fault-tolerant, guarantees your data will be processed, and is easy to set up and operate. On the other hand, Mercurial is detailed as "A free, distributed source control management tool". Mercurial is dedicated to speed and efficiency with a sane user interface. It is written in Python. Mercurial's implementation and data structures are designed to be fast. You can generate diffs between revisions, or jump back in time within seconds.
Apache Storm and Mercurial are primarily classified as "Stream Processing" and "Version Control System" tools respectively.
"Flexible" is the top reason why over 7 developers like Apache Storm, while over 18 developers mention "A lot easier to extend than git" as the leading cause for choosing Mercurial.
Apache Storm is an open source tool with 6.23K GitHub stars and 4.07K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Apache Storm's open source repository on GitHub.
AO.com, Bitbucket, and Yomali are some of the popular companies that use Mercurial, whereas Apache Storm is used by Spotify, Twitter, and trivago. Mercurial has a broader approval, being mentioned in 47 company stacks & 150 developers stacks; compared to Apache Storm, which is listed in 57 company stacks and 110 developer stacks.
