What Advantages Does DIS Have?

  • Scalable: A DIS stream can seamlessly scale its data throughput from megabytes to terabytes per hour, and from thousands to millions of PUT records per second.
  • Easy to use: You can create a DIS stream within seconds. It is easy to put data into a stream, and build a data processing application.
  • Low cost: DIS has no upfront cost and you only pay for the resources you use.
  • Parallel processing: DIS allows you to have multiple DIS applications processing the same stream concurrently. For example, you can have one application running real-time analytics and another sending data to OBS from the same stream.
  • DIS preserves data for 24 hours, reducing the probability of data loss in case of application failures, individual machine failures, or facility failures. The value of N is an integer from 1 to 7.
