| Kurrent | Relational DB | |
|---|---|---|
Streaming Data
|
Subscriptions give you real time changes | Data can be overwritten, needs verification |
Efficiency
|
Save changes once, subscriptions propagate changes instantly | Data needs to be recorded then changes pushed out to the system |
Service Autonomy
|
Stop and start self-validating streams as needed | Needs to be rebuilt gracefully in line with other systems |
Event Driven Architecture
|
Build complex workflows and react in real time | All solutions need to consider the different forms of data |
Time Travel
|
Move through the event stream in any direction for analysis and forecasting | Not always easy or possible, changelogs might be needed |
Root Cause Analysis
|
Trace events back to their roots, making analysis easy and faultless. | Refer back to changelogs, check external data sources, piece together information |
Legacy Migration
|
When older systems need replacing, do it at your pace. | Needs long term planning, down time and to happen all at once. |
Why use Kurrent?
Businesses today are driven by digital events happening in real time. An event in one area of the business triggers a response in an app that runs another. These apps and services must respond constantly, without delay or data loss. Scale is mission-critical because there are thousands or even millions of events occurring every minute of every day. Without a single, foundational database of these events, today’s apps and services can’t work. Failure is inevitable. Kurrent is the only event-native data platform that provides the record of events to support these new apps and services.
