Kafka → Iceberg minus the headaches

Copying data from Kafka to Iceberg unlocks huge analytical power. But for most teams, the excitement quickly hits roadblocks - snapshot expiration, schema evolution, re-partitioning and more...

  2. 🚧 Compaction 🚧
  3. 🚧 Schema Evolution 🚧
  4. 🚧 Re-partitioning 🚧

Streambased I.S.K. (Iceberg Service for Kafka) does things differently! Instead of copying, I.S.K. creates a logical Iceberg view of your Kafka data with no physical movement.

Kafka
Streambased
Iceberg
  1. Metadata only snapshots
  2. Kafka driven schemas
  3. Logical partitioning
  4. No compaction necessary

With this approach you get:

  1. A single source of truth - data remains in Kafka for total consistency
  2. Instant Schema evolution - as applied in Kafka
  3. Logical Snapshots - create and delete snapshots at will
  4. No compaction required - No small files are created so no need to compact them away.
  5. The freshest view - Kafka contains all the most recent data and it's all accessible

Turn your Iceberg migration from 12 months to 12 days with Streambased I.S.K.
