Everything that is not dead is developing: plants and animals develop; friendships develop; organizations develop. And while data infrastructure is rightly considered not to be a living thing, event streaming platforms develop too.
The lens of development as a phenomenon brings clarity to Apache Kafka/Confluent Platform's future direction, as we see the elements of a completed streaming platform combining with the properties of a cloud-native system to produce a mature platform capable of things earlier versions of itself could not envision.
It is time for Kafka's future.
