Did that here: https://kafscale.io/comparison/ - mainly k8s native, easy ops, direct decoupling of brokers and data streaming processing, 100% open source. Much cheaper to operate in a cloud.

S3-backed Kafka, ephemeral brokers, no partition shuffles, K8s native

Show HN: Kafka-compatible streaming on S3 with stateless brokers

2pk03 — Tue, 06 Jan 2026 16:53:58 +0000

Hi HN,

KafScale is Kafka-compatible streaming, k8s native, where S3 is the source of truth and brokers hold no persistent state. Written in Go, runs on Kubernetes.

Built this after years of operating Kafka and hitting the same walls: broker failures that take hours to recover, partition rebalancing that blocks deploys, disk capacity planning that never ends.

How it works:

- Producers and consumers use standard Kafka clients - Brokers buffer in memory, flush to S3 - etcd stores metadata and consumer group state - Recovery means restarting a pod and reading from S3 - Optional Iceberg processor reads segments directly from S3, bypasses brokers entirely for batch/analytical workloads

What you give up: latency is 400-500ms (S3 round-trip), no transactions, no compacted topics. It's not a 100% replacement.

What you get: brokers are disposable, scaling is just replica count, no disk management, direct access to streamed data over S3 ACL

Right. It boils down to federated learning on edge to have access to relevant data.

New comment by 2pk03 in "Is Binance the Next Domino to Fall?"

2pk03 — Tue, 03 Jan 2023 16:53:07 +0000

Controversy article, but digging deeper - especially the rants from CZ against competitors - it looks not so good, as for the whole industry. I bet crypto.com and / or Binance are the next and last one in this consolidation period.
