I finished reading Kleppman's Designing Data-Intensive Applications last night and this looks like it's straight out of the last chapter that talk about the future. They don't use the term "dataflow" though.

I read it over the summer and I'd say it's essential reading for any developer who deals with data.

Perhaps most importantly, the book empowered me to talk confidently about the trade-offs involved with different choices of handling data, and gave me a language framework to talk accurately about those choices.

Previously even the parts I did understand was from experience, and not an academic background, so my explanations were hand-wavy or sloppy, but now I can state my case for different solutions much more clearly.
