Pulsar Capabilities

Unified

StreamNative is the only solution on the market that offers a scalable messaging queue while being compatible with Kafka style’s data streaming API. It provides various queuing features, including out-of-order consumption, individual acknowledgment and negative acknowledgment, TTL, dead-letter queues, and more.

Cloud-Native

Separate data serving from data storage to enable independent and instant scalability without over-provisioning compute resources. This approach can reduce infrastructure costs by 60% or more.

Pulsar’s rebalance-free data streaming architecture not only speeds up elasticity but also substantially lowers the total cost of ownership. No data balance, no network cost, no labor cost, and less service disruptions.

Multi-Tenant

Eliminate bespoke management of hundreds of Kafka clusters. Consolidate your various teams' data streaming usage into one multi-tenant platform with RBAC, quota and resource management, and tenancy isolation.

Discover the benefits of URSA, a Kafka API-compatible data streaming engine built on the lakehouse. Get insights on optimizing your data streaming with URSA!
