Unite past + present data for next level advantage

Apache Kafka holds your most recent truth. Apache Iceberg holds your history.

Streambased delivers a unified view of real-time and historical data by making Kafka and Iceberg queryable together – without copying data, building new pipelines or changing the tools your teams rely on.

By removing the boundary between Kafka and Iceberg, the distinction between real-time and historical systems disappears, unlocking use cases that radically expand what’s possible with your data.

Purpose Built for
Real-time Analytics

Dashboard and Reporting

Keep dashboards and reports aligned with live data. Every Kafka topic is instantly available in Iceberg, so teams can query fresh events without waiting for pipelines to finish.

Machine Learning & AI

Models are never stale. Feature stores and predictions are updated with the most recent data while retaining the full history..

Unified Governance

We carry Kafka’s metadata, schema rules, and access controls through into Iceberg so the data lake stays clean, trustworthy, and auditable.

Data Science Exploration

Queries combine last second activity with years of history in one place. Data scientists can join and analyse streams with accuracy and freshness guaranteed.

What a Unified Kafka + Iceberg View Enables

Structured Table From Raw Kafka

Kafka topics become clean, query-ready tables - translated at read time for fast analytic scans, no repartitioning required.

The Freshest Data

The moment data lands in Kafka, it is queryable in Iceberg. Dashboards, investigations and AI/ML models always stay in step with the stream.

Single Source of Truth

Kafka’s access rules, ACLs and retention windows carry over directly. The same policies apply whether you query a second ago or a year back.

Simplified Operations

No compaction jobs, no snapshot cleanup, no repartition rewrites. Data stays in Kafka, and Iceberg is just a logical view.

Stream Processors Give You Speed,
But Not Insights.

OLAP databases provide insights, but never in real time. 
Streambased combines both: the immediacy of stream processing with the depth of analytics.
