Streamdata.io
Streamdata.io is a French B2B software vendor.
Technology[edit]
Streamdata.io provides a Proxy as a Service for any HTTP API by polling and acting as a streaming API. It is the first-level client-side operation that provides streaming capabilities without any coding requested at server level.
Launched in April 2015,[1] The first version of Streamdata.io converts any JSON RESTful API into an incremental data stream based on JSONPatch[2] and Server Sent Events (also known as EventSource) standards.
When a client connects to an API through Streamdata.io servers, Streamdata.io will start polling the sourced API.[3] The first piece of data sent to a client is a copy of the sourced API answer. Thereafter, Streamdata.io will send the client only diff calculated at server level.
Streamdata.io claims a number of benefits from this approach. First, the sourced API will be polled only once independently of the number of clients connected through Streamdata.io. Second, client-side benefits from the advantages of push over poll (battery consumption [4] and latency improvement). To match with the sourced API rate limits, polling frequency from Streamdata.io's server to the sourced API is fixed by the user within its portal.
A first review of this service was made by Kin Lane.[5]
