Damn, Stonebreaker, Zaharia. Seems like the big guns are out for the new data model in town.

This tech feels like fancy RDBMS triggers backed (and made unique) by a distributed log. Looks very much like the same tech as Flink's statefun and Restate.dev.

Just like SSD gave us LSM trees and RocksDB, it seems like this is the higher level abstraction that Kafka enables. It's going to be interesting to see how it pans out.
