Google Cloud named leader in The Forrester Wave: Streaming Analytics

Google Cloud has been named a leader in The Forrester Wave: Streaming Analytics, Q3 2019. According to Forrester, many leading enterprises realise that real-time analytics, the analytics of what’s happening with data in the present is an incredible competitive advantage. With it, they can act right away to serve customers, fix operational problems, power internet of things (IoT) apps and respond decisively to competitors.
The report evaluates the top 11 vendors against 26 rigorous criteria for streaming analytics to help enterprise IT teams understand their options and make informed choices for their organisations. Google scored 5 out of 5 in Forrester’s report evaluation criteria of scalability, availability, aggregates, management, security, extensibility, ability to execute, solution roadmap, partners, community and customer adoption.
The Forrester report notes that Google Cloud unifies streaming analytics and batch processing the way it should be with no compromises. That must be the goal when software architects create a unified streaming and batch solution that must scale elastically, perform complex operations and have the resiliency of Rocky Balboa. Google’s Cloud Dataflow is that solution for Google Cloud Platform.
