Oracle Exam 1Z0-997 Topic 9 Question 12 Discussion

The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Streaming service provides a fully managed, scalable, and durable storage solution for ingesting continuous, high-volume streams of data that you can consume and process in real time. Streaming can be used for messaging, ingesting high-volume data such as application logs, operational telemetry, web click-stream data, or other use cases in which data is produced and processed continually and sequentially in a publish-subscribe messaging model.

Streaming Usage Scenarios

Here are some of the many possible uses for Streaming:

Metric and log ingestion: Use the Streaming service as an alternative for traditional file-scraping approaches to help make critical operational data more quickly available for indexing, analysis, and visualization.

Messaging: Use Streaming to decouple components of large systems. Streaming provides a pull/bufferbased communication model with sufficient capacity to flatten load spikes and the ability to feed multiple consumers with the same data independently. Key-scoped ordering and guaranteed durability provide reliable primitives to implement various messaging patterns, while high throughput potential allows for such a system to scale well.

Web/Mobile activity data ingestion: Use Streaming for capturing activity from websites or mobile apps (such as page views, searches, or other actions users may take). This information can be used for realtime

monitoring and analytics, as well as in data warehousing systems for offline processing and

reporting.

Infrastructure and apps event processing: Use Streaming as a unified entry point for cloud components to report their life cycle events for audit, accounting, and related activities.
