Apache Iggy, a message streaming platform in Rust, graduates to an Apache TLP

spetz

Apache Iggy™ has officially graduated from the Apache Incubator and is now an Apache Software Foundation Top-Level Project (TLP) It’s been quite a journey, from a small Rust message-streaming experiment in 2023 to an independent Apache project with a growing community. And its biggest feature yet, being the Viewstamped Replication Revisited (VSR) clustering, is coming soon.

I always thought Im just not good enough to understand, hey Im just too dumb, surely there's people out there who understand what differentiates all these apache products! Nope never found one.

I believe spetz is on the project, so I'd like to ask: Is this a MQ implementation, or can this be used in place of e.g. something like protobufs and iroh/tonic? Does it have something akin to grants/capabilities/authorization? Does it have RPC? Can I have services speak a more privileged set of instructions/commands and clients needing auth to speak dumber/more high level administrative commands just like gRPC? Also, is the performance due to the (what I assume is custom) zero copy serialization? The landing page simply states it's essentially "fast messaging" but beyond that it's not entirely clear when I'd use this or what its features/limitations are.

I love my Italian Greyhounds so much, so this is great news to me.

Why the website is looking AI slop?

Will it integrate directly with MQTT? Or should I use a MQTT broker and pipe into Iggy?

For those confused about what Iggy is , the post appears to be written for the Iggy community. Iggy is basically Kafka written in Rust that has yet to reach the distributed, clustered, fault tolerant stage. Looks cool for sure, but it has a ways to go.
