For those who don't know (including me), Wallaroo appears to be a competitor to and/or similar to Kafka: high-throughput stream processing. If I'm incorrect, please let me know!

Hi Mike,

Yes. The core of Wallaroo is for high-throughput, low-latency stream processing.

We currently have a Python 2.7 API released and Go API preview release out.

I don't think of it as a competitor to Kafka although Kafka streams does provide a means to do stream processing.

There's a number of JVM based solutions out there (Apache has several). We are looking to be the solution for folks who want to use Python, JavaScript, Go and other non-JVM languages.
