This sounds really similar to some of the work coming out of Vectorized on Redpanda [0]. They're building a Kafka API compatible system in C++ that's apparently achieving significant performance gains (throughput, tail latency) while maintaining operational simplicity.

Where do you see performance comparisons to Kafka? As far as I can tell, the product you linked doesn't exist outside of a blog, so this reads like a marketing post.
