The advantages of Pulsar are very much practical, at least for us. Without it we would have to manage two separate messaging systems.

I don't see any evidence of StreamNative abandoning Pulsar at this point. I do see a compatibility layer for the Kafka protocol. That's fine.

It sure looks like they’re going quite a ways beyond Kafka-on-Pulsar - the Ursa/Oxia work they’re focused on right now replaces BookKeeper and seems very firmly Kafka-oriented. Or does Ursa also work with the Pulsar protocol?

Ursa supports Pulsar protocol as well
