Day 39: Big Data Architecture – Distributed Storage, Batch vs Stream Processing, and Compute‑Storage Separation
This lesson explains why a single database cannot scale for massive e‑commerce data, introduces the three core pillars of distributed storage—sharding, replication, and horizontal scaling—covers batch and stream processing differences with Spark, Hive, Flink and Storm, compares compute‑storage integration versus separation, and shows how Kafka, HDFS, Spark and Flink fit together in a real‑time data platform.
