WHAT DEFINES THE STREAMHOUSE ARCHITECTURE?

Summary from the TLDR Data newsletter

Apache Fluss' “Streamhouse” concept proposes one maintained logical table for streaming, serving, and analytics instead of separate synchronized systems. The key idea is to unify fresh stream data and historical lakehouse data behind shared metadata and tiering, so teams stop rebuilding state in multiple places. This can cut duplicate ingestion while still allowing specialized caches or replicas for specific access patterns.
