FlowtraceX Benchmarks

This repository contains curated performance benchmarks used to validate architectural decisions in the FlowtraceX Network Detection & Response (NDR) platform.

The benchmarks focus on real-time stream processing, scalability, and cost-efficiency for security detection workloads.

⚙️ Apache Flink Benchmarks

Path: flink/

These benchmarks evaluate:

• Pure Flink SQL execution
• SQL with light and heavy Python UDFs
• DataStream vs SQL performance characteristics
• Serialization vs computation overhead in PyFlink

Detailed methodology, results, and analysis are documented in: ➡️ flink/README.md

---

🎯 Scope

• Production-scale stream processing
• Security detection workloads (NDR use cases)
• Architecture and cost trade-offs

Additional benchmark categories will be added incrementally.

---

🧠 Principles

• Curated and reproducible
• Focused on real production constraints
• Designed to inform architectural decisions
