Overview

Streambased is a modern, SQL-oriented query engine designed to unlock the full potential of your Kafka data for analytical workloads. It offers an efficient, low-latency solution tailored for ad-hoc exploratory analytics, enabling businesses to query real-time data directly in Kafka without the need for costly and time-consuming processes like moving, duplicating, or transporting data to other systems. By simplifying access to Kafka data, Streambased provides quick insights for business intelligence, reporting, and data analysis, all without the overhead of traditional analytical platforms.

Streambased enables businesses to perform high-performance analytics directly on their Kafka data, bypassing the need for expensive and resource-intensive batch processing. By leveraging Apache Kafka’s native components and integrating seamlessly with existing BI tools, Streambased delivers real-time query execution with low latency and high concurrency. We enable operational and analytical systems to converge, turning Kafka into an effective analytical platform without compromising its original streaming capabilities.

Target use cases include:

• Ad-Hoc Exploratory Analytics on Kafka Data

Streambased is ideal for organizations that need to perform ad-hoc exploratory analytics on their Kafka data. Whether it’s uncovering trends, analyzing historical data, or performing deeper insights, Streambased enables efficient querying of both historical and real-time data from Kafka. This is ideal for analysts or data scientists who want to perform analysis over large volumes of data spanning from the beginning of time to the most recent events, without the need for ETL processing.

• Batch-Like Analytics on Streaming Data

Streambased allows users to perform analytics across all events in Kafka, from the earliest data to the latest incoming events, with performance comparable to traditional batch processing but without the latency or complexity. It provides the flexibility of batch analytics (e.g., querying large datasets) while maintaining the low-latency benefits of streaming data access.

• Integration with BI Tools for Dynamic Reporting

Streambased integrates seamlessly with BI tools, enabling real-time dashboards and dynamic reporting based on live Kafka data. This allows businesses to analyze streaming data directly, providing immediate insights to decision-makers without needing to replicate or transform the data.
