StreamBase is the industry's fastest stream processing engine, independently benchmarked at greater than 400,000 messages per second, per CPU, on real-world applications.

StreamBase Developer Edition features StreamBase Studio, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that is designed specifically for building, testing, and debugging your applications. StreamBase Studio is not configured or intended for benchmarking the full performance capabilities of the StreamBase server on production machines. This IDE-managed environment is not suitable for high-speed data rates and high-CPU utilization.

As you would expect, StreamBase Studio incurs its own overhead while running your IDE-managed application. The IDE consumes resources that would otherwise be available to your application in production. The sbd command that allows you to start a StreamBase server process ― independent of StreamBase Studio and your authoring and testing sessions ― is available in StreamBase Enterprise Edition, but not in the Developer Edition.

StreamBase Enterprise Edition is an enterprise-class version of the product that provides the industry-leading performance, connectivity, configuration flexibility, and command-line control of the full StreamBase Event Processing Platform. The Enterprise Edition includes performance features such as clustering to distribute concurrent processing threads across physical machines.
