• Warpstream is one of the most exciting companies I have seen in years. Solving the technical and pricing challenges of running Kafka yourself for ALL use cases. Don’t take my word for is here’s a recent customer quote “Warpstream is the most exciting thing to happen in infrastructure in a long time. For years we have struggled with the cost and complexity of Kafka, being forced to make one bad trade off for another. Warpstream introduced a new way to think about streaming, and as a result we no longer have to trade off high availability for cost reasons. It’s both cheaper and better. This is really a game changer.”
