See also: Warpstream, which was so good it got acquired by Confluent.
Feels like there is another squeeze in that idea if someone “just” took all their docs and replicated the feature set. But maybe that’s what S2 is already aiming at.
Wonder how long warpstream docs, marketing materials and useful blogs will stay up.
- dangoodmanUT 1y agoi wouldn't say it was so good it got acquired by them, rather confluent had no s3-backed play and it was easier for them to acquire warpstream than to add it to kafka directly warpstream has latency issues, which downstream turn into cost issues
- hardwaresofton 1y agoThat's a good point -- I assumed there were other choices, but now that I look, warpstream may have been the only already-kafka-compatible option. That said, they were at least "good enough" to make "buy" more appealing than "build"
- jjk7 1y agoConfluent has "Freight" which is their integrated s3-backed play.
