WarpStream BYOC Schema Registry is expanding: In addition to the existing support for Avro, it now includes support for Protobuf schemas. This functionality maintains complete compatibility with @confluent.io's Schema Registry.

Goldsky was hitting the limits of Kafka at scale with tens of thousands of partitions and petabytes of blockchain data. By moving to WarpStream, they cut costs by 90%, removed bottlenecks, and now scale seamlessly toward 100 PiBs and beyond 👉 buff.ly/psYF3fN

What are the benefits of WarpStream's zero disk or diskless architecture? 💸 Reduced costs. 📈 Auto-scaling. 🎯 Workload isolation. 📊 Easy integration with Managed Data Pipelines. 🔒 Zero access and BYOC native.

Cloud disks are expensive. Really expensive. Most engineers intuitively understand this, but the magnitudes are worth considering 👉 buff.ly/48VFcVV

The phases of cloud infrastructure: 1️⃣ Software is given away. Add-ons sold. 2️⃣ Cloud migration. Costs went up instead of down. 3️⃣ Lift and shift BYOC with lots of fees. Learn how WarpStream was developed as cloud-first to solve these issues.

Kafka's "noisy neighbors" problem (where workloads often compete for resources) can lead to increased latency, performance degradation, and failures. We review how to handle it with quotas, mirroring, and WarpStream Agent Groups.

It's a bold claim we're making: that we can reduce Kafka cloud costs by as much as 10x (by removing interzone networking fees and going diskless with object storage). See how our benchmarks show how we do that ➡️ buff.ly/AbdLFnZ

WarpStream is designed to look and feel exactly like a Kafka cluster, but it has a different implementation and architecture. Because our Agents are stateless, we have to square a circle. We explain how we did that.

S3 Express One Zone (S3EOZ) prices recently dropped by 85%. We've supported S3EOZ since December 2024. This latest pricing update means our latency is 3x better at only a 15% higher TCO.
