10x acceleration
Stream processing can be accelerated with multiple servers or multiple processing cores. The first approach, high-performance computing (HPC), relies on optimization techniques such as load balancing, clustering, edge computing, and more. The second approach is using the 1000s of cores found in GPU for general programming.
Reality Frontier can achieve a multi-fold speed up of your algorithms. We can also assist with your infrastructure needs, either using commodity hardware or a managed hosted solution. The cost of scaling out to many-core is significantly lower than using multiple servers.

1. Check that parallel programming is a fit for your needs
Compute-intense applications can be recognized by their compute to I/O ratio. When an application loads or stores a piece of data rarely compared to the number of computations performed on it, the application is considered compute-intensive.
Applications are said to be data parallel when the operations they perform on a dataset can be applied on each of its data items independently from the others. Data parallelism allows applying an operation on several data items at the same time.
Finally, an application exposes data locality when the data it produces is read or written at most once or twice and then never again. This is very common in signal processing applications, such as video and audio filters.
If your application fits these criteria, you may consider a stream-processing implementation with RealityFrontier.
