New year, new product. Introducing Hookdeck Outpost. A fully managed, serverless service for sending webhooks and event destinations.

New in Hookdeck Event Gateway: event cancellations. Webhook delivery offers no control after events are sent. Hookdeck adds queue-level features: retries, delays, pauses, and cancellations. Cancel events before delivery, filter conditions, and retry later. 📖 RTM → hookdeck.com/docs/cancel...

August 2025 Hookdeck product updates: - Webhook deduplication reduces processing overhead - Free metrics provide full observability - MS Teams alerts for real-time notifications - Outpost v0.5.0 adds Amazon S3 event destination support

🛠️ Shopify app builders: shipping multiple apps with the same webhooks? Problem: - You built inventory, fulfillment, and analytics apps - A merchant installs all three - An 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀/𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 event comes in three times - once per app - That’s triple the webhook traffic and processing overhead

🚢 July at Hookdeck: - v4 Dashboard: faster, clearer - Smarter routing: set transform/filter order - Outpost 0.4.0: Azure Service Bus destination type support - Stripe collab: rate-limit-friendly webhooks + meetups - New Sources: OpenAI, LinkedIn, DocuSign Full update → hookdeck.com/blog/hookde...

🚢 Outpost 0.4.0 released Outpost is our open source, self-hosted event delivery service. It gives you full control over how events are delivered as webhooks and directly to queues, with retries, delivery logs, and multi-tenant routing built in.

The Hookdeck Event Gateway allows full control over transformation and filter order in your event pipeline. Options include: → Filter or transform first → Cleanup data pre-delivery → Deliver only essential data Available via dashboard UI and API.

Webhooks are not a trivial problem at scale. When you're processing thousands of events per second, your strategy matters. Webhooks are usually delivered at-least-once. Assume duplicates and out-of-order events are the norm, not the exception.

Event-Driven Architecture: Beyond the Basics Choosing the right infrastructure for event-driven systems is a strategic move that can define your application's performance, scalability, and responsiveness.

Our new dashboard v4 is a serious upgrade. It's a fundamental rebuild for clarity and speed. We tackled the core challenge of making event metrics instantly readable.

💡 Ever wondered how to manage complex event streams without cluttering your application code? Event filtering and routing is your secret sauce.

📊 We analyzed the highest-volume webhook sources flowing into the Hookdeck Event Gateway. Here are the top 10 API platforms by webhook event volume...

🎓 Paddle used to treat Black Friday as a webhook stress test. Now that same volume is just… a regular day.

Scaling Webhook Ingestion: How Harvust Handled Twilio Webhook Spikes Handling high-volume Twilio message status webhooks requires more than just code; it necessitates thoughtful infrastructure choices.

Scaling Event Infrastructure: A Look Inside Churnkey’s Webhook Architecture As SaaS platforms move from startup to scale-up, webhook infrastructure often becomes a bottleneck. At Churnkey, growing event volume exposed the limits of their initial setup and forced a rethink of their architecture.

Ever feel like Kafka is complex overkill for your event architecture? You're not alone. Not every project needs the full heavyweight infrastructure.

Webhook Delivery: Managing Delivery Failure Every software system encounters transient failures. The difference between good and great integrations is how you handle those moments.

🧰 Paddle gives SaaS businesses everything they need to handle payments, subscriptions, and compliance globally.

Ever had a webhook fail because the payload format wasn’t quite right? Some platforms force application/json. Others send x-www-form-urlencoded. Your queue, API, or processing logic might expect something different.
