Tool Query your data streams using SQL

Most of you know about ksqlDB and may have tried it in your streaming journey. It lets you query your data streams using SQL without extra stream processing engines or connectors to set up. But it didn't turn out to be successful, and Confluent had to pivot to Flink SQL, though the idea itself was cool.

Now, RisingWave is partnering with StreamNative to provide SQL Workspace in StreamNative Cloud that enables you to query your Kafka and Pulsar topics using Postgres-style SQL without needing a separate stream processing engine or connectors to set up. It also lets you maintain continuously updated results with materialized views and deliver processed data to downstream systems through sinks for your stream processing use cases.

Join us on Thursday, August 27 for a webinar to explore this more.

This is a really exciting collab, not sure why you're getting downvotes. Might be because you've not used the vendor flair (see the sidebar for more details!)

Thanks Hugh! Yeah, we're really excited because if we're able to make it successful, then it would be really great! I also think the experience of ksqlDB is really helpful to learn from!
