@s2.dev can now automatically delete streams where all records have fallen out of retention or it was never written to, based on a configurable time threshold.

The option is called "delete-on-empty" and you can set it up on the default stream configuration for your basin from the dashboard or CLI!

Agents need granular streams. And yes, @s2.dev fits the bill nicely!

S2 is starting to do some really interesting stuff…

shikhar @schmizz.net · May 16

What if you could share an S2 stream directly with an end client, no additional proxy middleware to implement? S2 now supports granular scopes on access tokens! I'll share more on it soon.

This was my classmate. He was a student in my ethics class, and we used to sit next to each other. Most dedicated person in the class to legitimate justice for all people. He legitimately cared. I am so horribly heartbroken

We're also releasing an alpha version of a Flink connector for S2 streams: github.com/s2-streamsto...

See the demos for an example real-time feature pipeline for turning beacons (stored on S2) into complex events, and ultimately a dynamic table of ML features stored upsert-style on an S2 stream.

You can easily power your next IoT project's data streaming pipeline with S2, and I wrote a blogpost showing exactly how you can do it!

First post of the year! @andypavlo.bsky.social got me thinking about why Confluent didn't build WarpStream.

My conclusion: legacy infrastructure companies are going to have a tough time against cloud native, AI-enabled, post-ZIRP competitors.

Infrastructure Vendors Are in a Tough Spot

Cloud native, AI-enabled, post-ZIRP companies are the new apex predator.
