Can you share a bit about how these events are stored on Stripes backend e.g. Kafka, Postgres?

- bastawhiz 5y agoIt's all just kafka and mongo. The event can be stored in any simple k/v storage. There's no magic. Edit: not sure why I'm being downvoted. I work at stripe and this is literally how it works.
- bkrausz 5y agoHi Basta! Can confirm both that he works at Stripe and is right. Years ago there wasn't even a Kafka portion, that's newer.
- ctas 5y agoThanks for the input. We're currently working on a similar solution, so I was really curious to learn more. One thing I really admire is how Stripe makes it transparent which events were fired both in general through the Developer area, and on specific objects like customers, subscriptions, etc..
