Speaking in #Barcelona is always special for me! And tomorrow, Wednesday 15th I'll be presenting at Flink Forward Barcelona. Join me and Igor Kersic to hear about The Future of Streaming with @VervericaData and @aiven_io. Come by and say hello.

🚨Kafka Streams 4.1.0 contains a memory leak regression bug: https://t.co/oTtsQp5Wx2 Be careful upgrading, or wait for 4.1.1 bug-fix release. We plan to get it out quickly.

I am once again begging you to put your database servers and application servers in the same region.

The last few months of @aiven_io and #ApacheKafka 🧵: - KIP 1150: Diskless Kafka: https://t.co/2QWzSDjUOH - Iceberg topics: https://t.co/XkmUmJ9BZs - 30 seconds to stream:

Congratulations to @FrankYangTW for becoming a committer and to @lucasbrut for being added to the PMC!

The largest Kafka you've never heard about: Datadog 🐶 • hundreds of TRILLIONS of messages a day • terabytes a second of traffic - at least 10x more than Uber's 🔥 • >10,000 brokers in 600 Kafka clusters • >1,000,000 partitions over thousands of topics - e.g. 7000 topics

I spoke on another podcast about KIP-1150 (diskless topics in Kafka). Thanks @BdKozlovski and @gharris1727 !

BLOGGED 🎉 - Diskless Kafka KIP-1150 Wrote a detailed blog on why I think diskless Kafka is going to be HUGE. Do check it out here: https://t.co/NUt3odY2o1 @aiven_io has been at the forefront of this proposal that is going to help the entire #Kafka ecosystem. Also, thanks

I just published a 2 hour and 30 minutes long technical deep dive podcast with two of the Diskless proposal authors. The podcast is a treasure trove chock full of deep technical insights. There is no better resource online about KIP-1150 🔥 👉 https://t.co/zZSgYTirdV

Curious to learn more? Think of this as your hitchhiker’s guide to Diskless Topics! 🚀Over on the @aiven_io blog, Filip Yonov and I break down the individual KIPs and explore what this new feature means for Kafka, how it works, and why it matters. 👉 https://t.co/hsXYNRS5gC 2/2

If you’ve been following the latest in Apache Kafka, you might’ve seen our recent proposal: KIP-1150 – Diskless Topics. But KIP-1150 isn’t just a single proposal—it’s a whole series of KIPs, each tackling a different aspect of the feature. 1/2

And if you want to read a nice write up head to @aiven_io's blog post: https://t.co/6ne9sLDnIe If you think this is a good feature to have or you have feedback to give share it in Kafka's mailing list:

We just wrote KIP-1150 Diskless Topics. Bringing a new type of topics to @apachekafka that writes directly to object storage without the need for local disks or replication! Go read the proposal: https://t.co/uLm6Y0Ufoa #kafka #objectStorage

🚨BREAKING: Direct-to-S3 topics are coming to Apache Kafka! KIP-1150: Diskless Topics was just published on the mailing list. After WarpStream pioneered this game-changer in 2023, everyone else -- Confluent, Bufstream, AutoMQ, RedPanda -- has been busy implementing their own
