About

Apache Kafka® is an open-source, distributed streaming platform. Scale production clusters up to a thousand brokers, trillions of messages per day, petabytes of data, hundreds of thousands of partitions. Elastically expand and contract storage and processing. Stretch clusters efficiently over availability zones or connect separate clusters across geographic regions. Process streams of events with joins, aggregations, filters, transformations, and more, using event-time and exactly-once processing. Kafka’s out-of-the-box Connect interface integrates with hundreds of event sources and event sinks including Postgres, JMS, Elasticsearch, AWS S3, and more. Read, write, and process streams of events in a vast array of programming languages.

OpenSnowcat is an open source fork of Snowplow under the Apache 2.0 License that delivers a full event data pipeline for collection, enrichment, routing, and loading, remaining fully compatible with Snowplow and Segment SDKs. It provides an end-to-end solution to collect behavioral data from web and mobile sources, enrich it with customizable processes, route events through modern integrations, and load enriched data into destinations such as Snowflake, Redshift, S3, Amplitude, Kinesis, and more, with support for JSON and TSV output formats. OpenSnowcat emphasizes being free and open source forever with a trusted license, aiming for security, stability, and backward compatibility so existing Snowplow implementations can continue without disruption. Its architecture is designed for high performance, minimal latency, and dynamic scalability, integrating with cloud services to simplify management and cost efficiency at scale.
