I have had the privilege of playing with and following the progress of Pipeline Designer for a while now. I am really excited about this new tool. If you haven’t seen it yet, then don’t delay and get your free trial now…..actually, maybe read this blog first ;-) Pipeline Designer is an incredibly intuitive, web-based, batch and stream processing integration tool.
Before going to the world of integration, machine learning, etc., I would like to discuss with all of you about a scenario many of you might experience when you live in a mega city.
