Storm is a distributed realtime computation system. Similar to how Hadoop provides a set of general primitives for doing batch processing, Storm provides a set of general primitives for doing realtime computation. Storm is simple, can be used with any programming language, is used by many companies, and is a lot of fun to use!

The Rationale page on the wiki explains what Storm is and why it was built. This presentation is also a good introduction to the project.

Storm has a website at storm-project.net. Follow @stormprocessor on Twitter for updates on the project.

Documentation

Documentation and tutorials can be found on the Storm wiki.

Which list should I send/subscribe to?

If you are using a pre-built binary distribution of Storm, then chances are you should send questions, comments, storm-related announcements, etc. to [email protected].

If you are building storm from source, developing new features, or otherwise hacking storm source code, then [email protected] is more appropriate.
