SAMOA Topology

SAMOA allows users to write their stream processing algorithms in an easy and platform independent way. SAMOA defines its own topology which is very intuitive and simple to use. Currently SAMOA has following basic topology elements.

1. Processor
2. Processing Item
3. Content Event
4. Stream
5. Task
6. Topology Starter
7. Topology Builder

Processor and Content Event are the logical units, Processing Item, Stream and Task are the physical units whereas Topology Starter and Topology Builder are administrative units.
