Facebook Flux

In the similar line of Google's Clould Data Flow, Facebook have already developed a data flow architecture called Flux. Flux works within the Facebook messaging system. It avoids cascading affects by preventing nested updates- simply put, Flux has a single directional data flow, meaning additional actions aren’t triggered until the data layer has completely finished processing.

Flux is the application architecture that Facebook uses for building client-side web applications. It complements React's composable view components by utilizing a unidirectional data flow. It's more of a pattern rather than a formal framework, and you can start using Flux immediately without a lot of new code.

FlumeJava, from which Cloud Dataflow evolved, is also involved the process of creating easy-to-use, efficient parallel pipelines. At Flume’s core are “a couple of classes that represent immutable parallel collections, each supporting a modest number of operations for processing them in parallel. Parallel collections and their operations present a simple, high-level, uniform abstraction over different data representations and execution strategies.”
