Is there an analogue to this in the Apache Big Data universe? Similar to Kafka, perhaps?

Sounds more like a streaming Cassandra.

> To get your hands on Trill, Microsoft is asking people to reach out via email to the company using asktrill@microsoft.com. We expect to see its GitHub repository spring up in the next few months.

So it's not open sourced yet but it appears private companies are already using Trill even though it's an internal Microsoft project

Go to the actual Microsoft link, they are not at all asking that. They're asking for FEEDBACK from people using it.

> take Trill for a spin, and tell us what you think! Reach out to us at asktrill@microsoft.com, we’d love to hear from you.

Hi, this is indeed open source and available right now on https://github.com/Microsoft/Trill We will edit the original announcement to make that clear. We also reached out to OnMSFT to see if they can edit the article with this info. Let us know if you have any question or feedback.
