RisingWave is an open-source real-time event streaming platform.

RisingWave is a real-time event streaming platform designed to offer the simplest and most cost-effective way to process, analyze, and manage real-time event data — with built-in support for the Apache Iceberg™ open table format. It provides both a Postgres-compatible SQL interface and a DataFrame-style Python interface. RisingWave can ingest millions of events per second, continuously join and analyze live streams with historical data, serve ad-hoc queries at low latency, and manage data reliably in Apache Iceberg™ tables.
