• Schemaless stream definition

  In previous Kuiper releases, user must create a stream with schema, but we found that in some user cases, the data schema could be very complex, and it will be difficult to create data schema for it. Now Kuiper supports to create a stream that does not have any fields, in this mode, Kuiper framework can't validate data types during data processing. So user need to very clear about the data types when writing rules, otherwise, it could probably have problems. EgeX tutorial doc is a good example of using schemaless stream.
