Bootify vs. Five vs. Java vs. Spring Cloud Data Flow Comparison Chart

Five is a low-code development environment that helps software developers build and deploy bespoke business software. Rapidly build release-ready software using Five’s prebuilt features, such as a hosted SQL database, authentication, or access control. Connect to multiple data sources and query (almost) any data source, such as external databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server & more) or REST API endpoints. Add full code almost anywhere through its native support for SQL, JavaScript, TypeScript, and HTML, Five never limits developers by what’s available out of the box. Five offers a free download that comes with no time limits. You can download it on your desktop and start building for free. Once you have developed a production-worthy application, you can deploy it to the cloud by subscribing to one of our hosting plans for as low as US$29.99/month. Five takes care of all the complicated deployment processes, allowing you to focus on what matters the most - your applications

Microservice-based streaming and batch data processing for Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes. Spring Cloud Data Flow provides tools to create complex topologies for streaming and batch data pipelines. The data pipelines consist of Spring Boot apps, built using the Spring Cloud Stream or Spring Cloud Task microservice frameworks. Spring Cloud Data Flow supports a range of data processing use cases, from ETL to import/export, event streaming, and predictive analytics. The Spring Cloud Data Flow server uses Spring Cloud Deployer, to deploy data pipelines made of Spring Cloud Stream or Spring Cloud Task applications onto modern platforms such as Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes. A selection of pre-built stream and task/batch starter apps for various data integration and processing scenarios facilitate learning and experimentation. Custom stream and task applications, targeting different middleware or data services, can be built using the familiar Spring Boot style programming model.
