Does anyone know what is happening with Pulsar since Splunk brought them out?
It looks to of stagnated since the announcement was made.
Architecture wise Pulsar is a far better piece of engineering than Kafka but with Confluent's funding and aggressive marketing it looks like Kafka has cornered the market for better or worse.
- adamfeldman 7y agoSplunk bought a company called Streamlio [1]. StreamNative is the company behind the linked blog post and project. My (outsider) understanding is that both Streamlio and Splunk employ(ed) active members of the Pulsar community.

- oweiler 7y agoI always hear it's better architecture-wise but what are the real life implications of difference? Also, Kafka has: * ksql * ksqlDB * Kafka Connect * Kafka Streams Does Pulsar has something comparable?
- thenaturalist 7y agoYes, you can run SQL using Presto [1], and by connecting. Not sure about ksqlDB as I am not familiar with it, but my understanding is Apache Flink would give you analog capabilities. Pulsar has IO capabilities analog to Kafka Connect [2]. Analogous to Kafka Streams, Pulsar offers Functions [3].
