Stream processing One approach to such a challenging scenario is stream processing, a computing paradigm and software architectural style for data-intensive software systems that emerged to cope with requirements for near real-time processing of massive amounts of data. This significantly increases event latency.

Problem, Strategy, and Solution Spaces To gain clarity on the terminology, it’s helpful to describe the various activities involved in building a product, which can then be grouped into buckets like problem and solution space or something else.
