## What is Fluss?
Fluss is a streaming storage built for real-time analytics which can serve as the real-time data layer for Lakehouse architectures.
It bridges the gap between **data streaming** and **data Lakehouse** by enabling low-latency, high-throughput data ingestion and processing while seamlessly integrating with popular compute engines like **Apache Flink**, while Apache Spark, and StarRocks are coming soon.
**Fluss (German: river, pronounced `/flus/`)** enables streaming data continuously converging, distributing and flowing into lakes, like a river 🌊
