What is a Tuple in Storm?

In Storm, Tuple refers to the data unit passed between different components in a topology. Tuples are ordered, immutable collections of data that contain values for one or more fields. In a topology, Spout components generate tuples and send them to Bolt components for processing. Tuples can contain data of any type, such as strings, numbers, objects, etc. In Storm, tuples are used as the basic unit for transferring data between components in a topology.
