Speedment Java stream ORM is developed by the team at Speedment, Inc. It is an open source tool on Github[1].
Speedment is available in a Apache 2-licensed open-source "community edition". Speedment also licenses extensions under closed-source commercial terms[2].
Speedment is implemented in Java and accessible from software written in other languages that works in the JVM ie. Scala.
It uses Java 8 streams to develop relational database applications. The Speedment toolkit handles the SQL specifics of the application. the execution of the application is accelerated by an in-JVM-memory data store.

Pure Java Stream ORM[3]
Speedment is a Java 8 Stream ORM Toolkit and Runtime. The toolkit analyzes the metadata of an existing legacy relational database and creates a Java representation of the data model which together with the Speedment runtime allows the user to create scalable and efficient Java applications using standard Java 8 streams without any specific query language or any new API.
Paradigm[4]
Expressing SQL as Java 8 Streams
The open-source project Speedment was founded with the main objective to remove the polyglot requirement for Java database application developers. There is a strong resemblance between Java streams and SQL as summarized in this simplified table:
| SQL | Java 8 Stream Equivalent |
|---|---|
FROM
|
stream()
|
SELECT
|
map()
|
WHERE
|
filter() (before collecting)
|
HAVING
|
filter() (after collecting)
|
JOIN
|
flatMap()
|
DISTINCT
|
distinct()
|
UNION
|
concat(s0, s1).distinct()
|
ORDER BY
|
sorted()
|
OFFSET
|
skip()
|
LIMIT
|
limit()
|
GROUP BY
|
collect(groupingBy())
|
COUNT
|
count()
|
Speedment, Inc.
Speedment was founded by the serial-entrepreneurs Carina Dreifeldt (CEO) and Per Minborg (CTO) in 2010. It is a spin-off to the successful music service Chilirec[5] which was the first cloud service in Europe and gained over 1 Mio users globally.
Speedment, Inc,. is headquartered in Palo Alto, CA, USA in the hart of Silicon Valley.

Oracle Java Magazine published an article on Speedment in their May/June Edition 2017 where the title was: "Database Actions Using Java 8 Stream Syntax Instead of SQL"[6] Further the core developers also pursue their own blogs which are frequently featured on Java websites like dZone, Java Code Geek, Voxxed and more.
