What is S4?

Apache S4 (Simple Scalable Streaming System) was a distributed stream computing platform designed for processing continuous, unbounded streams of data in near real-time. It was particularly well-suited for applications requiring low latency and high throughput, such as real-time analytics, fraud detection, and recommendation systems. S4 enabled developers to define processing logic as a network of interconnected processing elements (PEs) that could be dynamically deployed and scaled across a cluster of machines. While the Apache project is now retired, the concepts behind S4 influenced subsequent stream processing technologies.
