Hi Mithun,

I don't particularly want to move away from PERL, but I am the only person in the company who knows that language. Hence, I am exploring Java-based alternatives.

Storm can work for small (or low frequency) data sets. It depends on what
you intend to do. Whats the reason to move away form perl?
I'm doing something similar to forex.
tcpflow to get the live rates from a server. kafkacat moves it to kafka.
storm picks it up and processes it. redis stores the results for
distribution. The current rate of data coming in is only 10 records per
second. nothing too intense.
