In March of this year, Confluent officially launched the commercial capability of Tableflow. Now, with the AutoMQ open-source software, you can also experience this killer feature.
Simply put, for Kafka streaming data, AutoMQ can automatically store it in S3 in Iceberg Table format, so you no longer need to manage Flink Jobs and Spark Jobs yourself to perform ETL operations and convert Kafka data into table format. We believe this will be the new paradigm for Kafka stream data analytics in the future, and we look forward to more open-source and Kafka enthusiasts trying out this feature.
