Streams real time data manipulation links

As I mentioned I would put up a more detailed article on the background to streams.

It is a reasonably hot topic as the broker boys and quants in driving research due to the potential to make megabucks, tying together stream technology with algorithmic trading.
So like old mate Wayne Gretzky "Skate to where the puck is going to be", I am thinking about where the puck (or buck if you like) is going to be, current research is where the puck is at now.

Note, this is not the same as Oracle streams which is a different technology. Oracle streams mines Oracle redo transaction logs to enable real-time application to other databases either as a form of replication (for redundancy) or reporting or both.

Here are the URLs I used to start to get a feel for streams.

If you have others free feel to post them in the comments and I will add to the article.
