openvslam VS redpanda

This might be the case. However there is an additional risk and process component:

- you might not want to risk because you don't have lawyers etc in your company.

- even if you have lawyers etc in your company, if there are 2 alternatives one which is just an MIT license, you'll probably go for that one because you don't want to have a 1.5 month review of the use of this AGPL licensed alternative.

In general things like this https://github.com/xdspacelab/openvslam/wiki/Termination-of-... (repo with 3k stars), an effort terminated because of some traces of GPL code MIGHT be somewhere in there comes to light. Even though Grafana etc are mostly tools, for my startup I would probably not risk any of this (for my own sake and also for any kind of due diligence in case it ever gets acquired)

OpenVSLAM

Stream-processing platforms such as Apache Kafka, Apache Pulsar, or Redpanda are specifically engineered to foster event-driven communication in a distributed system and they can be a great choice for developing loosely coupled applications. Stream processing platforms analyze data in motion, offering near-zero latency advantages. For example, consider an alert system for monitoring factory equipment. If a machine's temperature exceeds a certain threshold, a streaming platform can instantly trigger an alert and engineers do timely maintenance.

Yeah it’s just the stack switching itself that is a handful of cycles, but there is not much more overhead for the full VM switch if you structure your embedding the right way. Code the code is source available if you want to peek at it!

that's a littlebit of a stretch. when you say "no shortage" - outside of redpanda what product exists that actually compete in all deployment modes?

it's a misconception that redpanda is simply a better kafka. the way to think about it is that is a new storage engine, from scratch, that speaks the kafka protocol. similar to all of the pgsql companies in a different space, i.e.: big table pgsql support is not a better postgres, fundamentally different tech. you can read the src and design here: https://github.com/redpanda-data/redpanda. or an electric car is not the same as a combustion engine, but only similar in that they are cars that take you from point a to point b.

Redpanda with the MongoDB Debezium Connector installed. We use Redpanda as a Kafka broker.

And Kafka + Kafka Connect has https://www.confluent.io/ https://aiven.io/ https://upstash.com/ (and not quite Kafka, but protocol-compatible, https://redpanda.com/)

There exists a C++ project which was created after Rust the language was available. github.com/redpanda-data/redpanda/

I suggest you check out io_uring and thread per core architecture. Applications like scylladb and redpanda have thread per core architecture and use io_uring for async io.
