    Hi HN! We are Ashish and Armend, founders of GlassFlow. We just launched our open-source streaming ETL that deduplicates and joins Kafka streams before ingesting them to ClickHouse https://github.com/glassflow/clickhouse-etl Why we built this: Dedup with batch data is straightforward. You load the data into a temporary table. Then, find only the latest versions of the record through hashes or keys and keep them. After that, move the clean data into your main table. But have you tried this with streaming data? Users of our prev product were running real-time analytics…

    Hey HN, I built StreamHouse, an open-source streaming platform that replaces Kafka's broker-managed storage with direct S3 writes. The goal: same semantics, fraction of the cost. How it works: Producers batch and compress records, a stateless server manages partition routing and metadata (SQLite for dev, PostgreSQL for prod), and segments land directly in S3. Consumers read from S3 with a local segment cache. No broker disks to manage, no replication factor to tune — S3 gives you 11 nines of durability out of the box. What's there today: - Producer API with batching, LZ4 compression, and…

    We are working on a product which makes stream processing easy for data analysts and data scientists. It’s a higher level alternative to Flink, Kafka Streams and Spark Streams. As well as making stream processing simpler, we also felt that lots of people were building these AWS stream processing platforms based on Kafka and something like Flink so wanted to offer this as a service. We would welcome any input on the space or approach: Home page: http://Timeflow.systems Demo: https://youtu.be/fGfgBaHXOkE
