The core of the service is Kafka wrapped in a friendly gRPC API (that's Timberslide). It's a collection of microservices, e.g. Twitter service streaming into Timberslide, IP/Prefix matching service reading from Timberslide, email/webhook notification service, a websocket server for the live view in the app. Adding other streams is possible, Twitter's API was just convenient while experimenting. RSS, Pubsubhubbub, Reddit, ...? It could be interesting to allow others to publish their own event streams into this app.
