Multiple Regions, Single Pane of Glass (opens in new tab)

I like the disclaimer:

  HN Disclaimer:
  WarpStream sells a drop-in replacement
  for Apache Kafka built directly on-top
  of object storage.

It only appears when you click through from news.ycombinator.com.

" also having the overall product present as a “single pane of glass” to end-users" this is unacceptable bullshit language unless you're in the buissness of selling actual glassware.

I can see why nobody's really discussing this.

TL;DR: "infra" product trades off availability for convenience instead of letting their customers decide

> any unavailability of Aurora in the primary hub region would prevent customers from creating new clusters in all regions, but existing clusters would continue working just fine. We felt like this was an acceptable trade off.

Ok. At least you're upfront about it.
