Big Data Quality must always be verified to ensure that data is safe, accurate, and complete. Data is moved through multiple IT platforms or stored in Data Lakes. The Big Data Challenge: Data often loses its trustworthiness because of (i) Undiscovered errors in incoming data (iii). Multiple data sources that get out-of-synchrony over time (iii). Structural changes to data in downstream processes not expected downstream and (iv) multiple IT platforms (Hadoop DW, Cloud). Unexpected errors can occur when data moves between systems, such as from a Data Warehouse to a Hadoop environment, NoSQL database, or the Cloud. Data can change unexpectedly due to poor processes, ad-hoc data policies, poor data storage and control, and lack of control over certain data sources (e.g., external providers). DataBuck is an autonomous, self-learning, Big Data Quality validation tool and Data Matching tool.

The HiveMQ Platform provides a scalable, reliable data backbone with an event-driven MQTT architecture. Here are a few highlights:
1. MQTT Broker: At the heart of the HiveMQ platform is a fully MQTT-compliant broker purpose-built for fast, reliable, bi-directional data movement between IoT devices and enterprise systems.
2. Edge Data Integration: HiveMQ Edge seamlessly integrates edge data by converting industrial protocols into standardized MQTT, enabling an interoperable IIoT infrastructure.
3. IoT Streaming Governance: Data Hub transforms data in flight, passing only the most relevant, contextualized data to cloud and enterprise systems.
4. UNS & IT/OT convergence Enabler: Commonly used as the backbone for Unified Namespace architectures and seamlessly connects OT devices with IT systems for full visibility and interoperability.
5. Distributed Data Intelligence: HiveMQ Pulse unifies and contextualizes data across the enterprise for smarter decisions exactly where they matter most.
6. Maximum Interoperability: Runs anywhere on-premises or in public or private clouds. Efficiently connects to streaming applications, databases and data lakes with a Java SDK to build your own
7. Scalability to Support Growth: Elastic scaling with automatic data balancing and smart message distribution. Proven benchmark of up to 200M active clients with 1.8B messages/hour
8. Business Critical Reliability: Zero message loss with persistence to disk and offline queuing. No single point of failure due to masterless cluster architecture and zero downtime upgrades

Amazon MSK
Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) simplifies the process of creating and operating applications that leverage Apache Kafka for handling streaming data. As an open-source framework, Apache Kafka enables the construction of real-time data pipelines and applications. Utilizing Amazon MSK allows you to harness the native APIs of Apache Kafka for various tasks, such as populating data lakes, facilitating data exchange between databases, and fueling machine learning and analytical solutions. However, managing Apache Kafka clusters independently can be quite complex, requiring tasks like server provisioning, manual configuration, and handling server failures. Additionally, you must orchestrate updates and patches, design the cluster to ensure high availability, secure and durably store data, establish monitoring systems, and strategically plan for scaling to accommodate fluctuating workloads. By utilizing Amazon MSK, you can alleviate many of these burdens and focus more on developing your applications rather than managing the underlying infrastructure.

StarTree
StarTree Cloud is a fully-managed real-time analytics platform designed for OLAP at massive speed and scale for user-facing applications. Powered by Apache Pinot, StarTree Cloud provides enterprise-grade reliability and advanced capabilities such as tiered storage, scalable upserts, plus additional indexes and connectors. It integrates seamlessly with transactional databases and event streaming platforms, ingesting data at millions of events per second and indexing it for lightning-fast query responses. StarTree Cloud is available on your favorite public cloud or for private SaaS deployment.
StarTree Cloud includes StarTree Data Manager, which allows you to ingest data from both real-time sources such as Amazon Kinesis, Apache Kafka, Apache Pulsar, or Redpanda, as well as batch data sources such as data warehouses like Snowflake, Delta Lake or Google BigQuery, or object stores like Amazon S3, Apache Flink, Apache Hadoop, or Apache Spark.
StarTree ThirdEye is an add-on anomaly detection system running on top of StarTree Cloud that observes your business-critical metrics, alerting you and allowing you to perform root-cause analysis — all in real-time.
