Undeniably my biggest open-source achievement. Apache Iggy™ began as a side project I hoped to finish in 3 weeks. Now, it is an Apache Software Foundation Top-Level Project. Grateful to every friend, colleague, and contributor who made it possible. A dream come true. ❤️

Apache Iggy™ has graduated from the Apache Incubator and is now a Top-Level Project! 🎓⚡ 120+ contributors. 4.5K+ stars. 500K+ downloads. Message streaming at laser speed. Read more: iggy.apache.org/blogs/2026/0... #iggy #apache #asf #tlp #toplevelproject #messaging #streaming #rust

Please welcome Chengxi Luo as a new Apache Iggy committer! Contributions across the Go SDK - BDD framework, leader redirection, binary reader/writer, and the publish workflow. #iggy #rust #go #streaming #messaging #apache #asf #opensource #oss

Clustering. Coming soon to Apache Iggy. Powered by VSR. #iggy #rust #vsr #clustering #streaming #messaging #apache #asf #opensource #oss

Please welcome Rimuksh Kansal as a new Apache Iggy committer! Behind much of our work on the C++ SDK (Bazel infra, low-level bindings), the Python SDK (uv, ruff, AsyncIterator), and the Java benchmarking suite. #iggy #rust #streaming #messaging #apache #asf #opensource #oss

Please welcome Raveendra Yerraguntla as a new Apache Iggy committer! Ravi has been actively contributing to Iggy across implementation (connectors), design discussions (e.g., Kafka gateway), and issue tracking. #iggy #rust #streaming #messaging #apache #asf #opensource #oss

Exactly why we keep building next-gen message streaming infrastructure. And there's so much more you can do once you properly utilize the hardware :)

Same pipeline, same hardware. Iggy vs Kafka, streaming into VeloDB Cloud (powered by Apache Doris). 3× throughput · ~29× lower p99.9 latency · 7× tighter end-to-end tail. A steady, single-digit-ms tail under load. github.com/velodb/velodb-demos #iggy #rust #io_uring #streaming #asf

Here's my slide deck from the talk at Rustmeet @rustmeet.bsky.social! Video should be up soon too :) laserdata.com/presentation...

It was great to speak at Rustmeet @rustmeet.bsky.social about building ultra-performant message streaming infrastructure with Apache Iggy @iggy.rs while representing LaserData.

What the Heck is Apache Iggy? | HackerNoon

Apache Kafka has gotten rather long in the tooth, is Apache Iggy the successor?

It's been a tremendous effort of the whole core team and external contributors, spanning almost a year, well done!

Thread-per-core + io_uring? See how we moved Apache Iggy from Tokio's work-stealing to a shared-nothing* architecture to make the most out of modern hardware and provide ultra-low, predictable tail latencies. iggy.apache.org/blogs/2026/0... #io_uring #iggy #rust #streaming #apache #asf

🚀 Apache Iggy 0.7.0 is out! VSR consensus for clustering, LeftRight lock-free metadata, NUMA awareness, socket migration, and tons of SDK & connector improvements. Replication is coming! iggy.apache.org/blogs/2026/0... #iggy #rust #io_uring #vsr #apache #asf #streaming

Your contributions are what make OSS great and help our community thrive! Once again, a huge thank you to all contributors who help make Apache Iggy the most efficient message streaming solution out there 🚀 #iggy #rust #oss #apache #asf #github #messaging #streaming

The Iggy Web UI is now embedded directly in the server. Enable it with a single setting — no separate container needed anymore. One binary to run them all. #iggy #rust #svelte #ui #web #asf #apache #oss

Why you might want to consider the completion-based I/O (io_uring) for your next project. Check this discussion (a glimpse of the future blog post). www.reddit.com/r/rust/comme... #iggy #rust #io_uring #compio #tokio #apache #asf
