Thanks Alex and Ncleung for your inputs.

Both the options looks to be valid based on the data size. I am thinking now, 
even RDBMS might scale well for this scenario if bolt is using only “Read” 
operations on database. However, will update later on the approach taken.

for parallel reads of massive historical data and high volume writes you could 
you a distributed db with SQL layer such as Apache 
Hbase+Phoenix<http://phoenix.incubator.apache.org/>, I think it might  
complement Storm nicely

Something like memcached is commonly used for this scenario.  Is memcached 
poorly suited for your goals or data access patterns?

Hi,

We are evaluating ‘Apache storm’ for one of the business use cases. In this use 
case, the incoming transactions/stream should be processed by set of rules or 
logic. In this process, there is a need of considering the historical data (may 
be 2 weeks or a month old) also.

Understand that, Storm will give better performance to process the incoming 
transactions in real-time. What if we have to read the historical data from 
RDBMS and use that data in the bolts?
Will this degrade the performance of whole cluster (as RDBMS systems might 
cause some delay due to the high load of reads from the parallelizing different 
bolts to achieve the better performance).

Any suggestion on solving this situation? Please share.


Thanks
