Summary

We covered quite a bit on Storm, its history, and its inception in this chapter. We introduced the components of Storm along with internal implementations of certain key aspects of Storm. We saw actual code and we now expect you to be able to set up Storm (local and cluster) and execute the basic examples as part of a Storm starter.

In the next chapter, we will initiate the users on various input data sources that are used in conjunction with Storm. We will discuss the reliability of Storm and how to persist data into some stable storage from Storm bolts.
